I would absolutely love to do this and was hoping that bonuses wouldn't be impacted as much as they were this year. Unfortunately... I'm not going to be able to sign up this year. Fortunately, there's always next year.

The PSDS is THE reason I own a Porsche today.

It's like Morpheus said in "The Matrix" -- "It will free your mind!"

Is PSDS worthwhile for someone who does a lot of other track events? I do 3 or 4 non-PCA DEs a year and I'm a member at a local track. I really love the idea of doing the actual PSDS but I'd hate to pay all that money just to spend three regimented days being taught what an apex is. I like the idea of a Marque-specific event, but I'm skeptical.

If you have never driven the perfect lap, it will help you. Otherwise you don't need it.
