so apparently there are lineups even at 7:30 so if we show up at around 8:15 we are probably in a 1hr line

ttt123 you said you will probably be at Dunkin at 7 so i will join and i think we should head over by 7:30 at the latest

i hope everyone sees this and can make it earlier, sorry for the confusion i had no idea about the timing

Put together all the pics we took last night. Through in a link to this thread so others in the area could find us, join in and hopefully get some more porsches together more often for some cruises, hangouts etc.

The first few pics are of the meet up at dunkin donuts.

Forgot to mention, Suteurusu told us about two more cars events Saturday. one is July 21st in Okemos at "Henry's place"(have to look that one up for address) and another June 19th in Lansing at "Biggby Coffee"

Wanted to mention as well, every Monday in Lapeer (old downtown) we have a street car show with food trucks, vendors etc. Its not your typical car show, more like a car hangout and its a lot of fun. Every time I've gone, theirs been between 40 to 70 cars. I know its not driving the back roads and cruising but I figure I'd start posting events I learn about on here so we can at least have more opportunities to get together and meet up/cruise. Also .. Lapeer area and thumb have some great roads with little traffic for some spirited driving.

Great meeting you guys! I'll try to keep this thread updated with the Lansing Cars and Coffee events beyond July and hopefully we can catch more people with the location being more central in Michigan.

Thanks for the great video, it was very high quality. Also appreciate your Grattan video, great track and very little traffic at your event.

Just wanted to give a shout out to the Putnam Park track in Indiana. KY PCA ran the event and it was absolutely first class. I will add a few pictures if my iPad cooperates.

This coming weekend is RSR PCA at Grattan. Hope to see some of you there!

So is being a PCA member worth it? What are the benefits?

Who was driving the Braid rallycross 911 that was parked next to you? The owner of the car is currently in Paris, France.

Benefits are usually discounted pricing on services through very specific providers (like discounts on classic car insurance through Hagerty if I recall correctly). SEM PCA organizes an annual park and stare at cars while eating food event, and they send out a monthly or quarterly publication. I found none of it useful and didn't renew my membership.
