Default Watkins Glen HPDE (High Performance Driver's Education) - October 7-8, 2013

Track your 928! The most fun you can legally have with your pants on!

3 Sharks already signed up. $350 for two days of track time (8-9 runs) plus classroom and in-car instruction. Watkins Glen is stunningly beautiful in the fall (leaf season), and it's an excellent track for the 928. Sign up soon before it sells out, and this event WILL sell out.

Sign up for an account, then search for Niagara. Do it! You won't regret it.

Nice! You will likely win the long-distance award.

Andy,

You will LOVE the Glen in your GTS. It is a LOT more fun than that road to Wichita where you flew by me on the way to OCIC last summer!!!!!

Look forward to seeing you again. We only need about 10 more 928's in order to break the record for the MOST 928's at a PCA Drivers Ed program at the Glen. We had 13 there once in the early 2000's, and had a picture in Panorama as a result! COME ON guys - if Andy can drive 1200 miles to get there, what's stopping the rest of you????

Cheers,

Gary---

Actually, with Andy and Thom in the mix, we only need 8 more. I assume OBehave will show up, though he's not registered yet. That would make it 7.

EDIT: Already got 6 registered (including pendings), so if Ed signs up, we'd only need 7 more. I'd love to see 14 928s at the Glen at the same time! That would be incredible.

If my car is roadworthy i'd love to come, but not track. Is there an option for spectator only? Would love to get a feel for it.

Yeah we have a ton of guests come down. Email me near the event and I'll get you on the wait list.

Our other events are Memorial Day and the tuesday after, then also in June for our Advanced DE.
