Its a fun run put on by niagara PCA , http://niagarapca.org/event/view/1092/ , we already were planing a trip and i spotted this and thought it might be fun. It will be our first PCA event so I just thought I see if anyone else from the area was going.

Niagara PCA are a US group no ?
I know the PCA UCR region restricts entrants with sign ups etc for insurance reasons I think so you cant just " come along" I think you are wait listed.

Maybe US regions are different ?

I have already been in contact with the organizers. They are a pca group and they have welcomed us no problems. In fact the response was " the more the merrier". There is also a breakfast put on by the porsche dealership there for everyone.

We are going to try to hit the run on the 16th coming back.

I will almost certainly attend as I've wanted to check out Letchworth Park for a while now and this will be a great opportunity to do so.

Does anyone have the details on the Buffalo departure for this event? I have contacted the organizers but haven't heard back yet.

Thank you for the heads up on the Cars & Coffee event on Sunday. We'lll try to check that out as well.

That's a strikingly different attitude between the Niagara region and UCR.

I don't buy the line about "insurance" - why would you need to insure a fun run? Everyone has their own car insurance. Certainly I'm not concerned about it one iota when organizing our rennlist drive.

Sounds like a great event.

In contrast UCR is full of crap. Largest growing region for last year and they can't even do a concours for 2016.

I'm not saying it is definitely for insurance. Just what I heard. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe it has something to do with the fact they are a chartered club ? Who knows.

I have been attending Niagara events for well over 10 years.They put on some of the best Porsche events I have ever attended and are very hospitable. Planned on attending Chilli run again this
year but unfortunately have to attend a funeral for a friends brother. You won't be disappointed, say hello to Rich and the gang . Enjoy. (Letchworth is beautiful especially at this time of year.
Terry
ps; No problems with event insurance if you are a paid up PCA member, which is a requirement as it is a PCA (Niagara) event. ( Believe you have to register by Oct 7th) / Take US$ cash for park entrance
