Default Porsche Driving Challenge
https://my.porsche.com/international...ing-challenge/

In a nutshell: A contest where people will be able to drive a "new model" in Germany and France.

Anyone signed up yet? I am having trouble getting through the application as it is really buggy. I have been trying for hours now on and off. Tried 3 different web browsers and 3 different devices...

Me too, I said I'd give it a go what the heck. Then I get to page 5/7, and as though it says already you are not good enough. Guess that makes me feel better than not trying at all.

I am hoping the "new model" is the 911R.

I'm hoping it's the 991 R too -- since I got chosen for the challenge.

But even if it's a Boxster, would there be any way NOT to enjoy a day with Patrick Long coaching you?

Can you get a passport renewed in 24 hours? I've learned that yes, you can.

I leave for Germany in two days. Still can't believe it.

You got the call? Awesome, look forward to your write up :-)


I did tell them, I'm available, flying to Germany Wednesday just in case.

Congrats! You look very familiar, like the gentleman who built an incredible garage with a lift on petrolicios?

Let us know how the experience goes.

Today, I can't argue with that. They just sent the itinerary: two 8-hour days with Patrick Long.
