Default New Member introducing my first Porsche and it's stable mate.

Hi everyone. Just introducing myself properly. I've made a few posts in the past. My first was about getting the 991 or a 997 GT3. Many of you were very helpful and knowledgable. I thank you. Your helpful insight helped me make a decision. I'm still getting to know this car. Like I said it's my first Porsche so rear engine is a change in dynamics and physics than what I'm used to, so I'm treating that factor with respect. Plus road temps are cooling in upstate NY. So far the car is awesome and has quenched my desire for a more visceral driving experience compared to my M5. I still love my M5 for it's attributes as well. The M truly is a beast.

A great way to do this would be by becoming a PCA member and doing a novice DE or two. Safe. Fun.

How close are you to Watkins Glenn?

Look great!

Thank you. I definitely will consider that for next season. I'm almost 3 hours. I'm closer to Lime Rock of PCA does anything there? I'm a half hour from this, but the prices to be a member are too costly for me.

Like joining a premium golf club. Definitely not cheap to play.

Pazzo, you definitely gave to go to the Glen. PCA, and many other companies, have events there all the time. It is an awesome, historical track and you would never regret it. You'll more than likely plan a trip back.
