As of now, only two run groups:

Combined White/Black run group
Red run group.

Half hour sessions. Lots of track time and finished by 1:00 PM.

I think the big Porsche thing is a nice idea. It's like a gateway drug for the track.
A long time ago the instructors at PSDS took me around Barber in a Cayenne Turbo. It was pretty friggin impressive. And I think the new "big" Porsches are way better. I'd love to take my wife's Macan on the track. Well, maybe for one lap.

I remember the skippy coaches taking us out in the van at LRP and doing a lap at "high speed" (for the Ford van). Wow - scary stuff.

Looks like not every region in NE is limited on allowing Macans on track.

Bruce McInnes did that with us when I did Skippy Racing School almost 20 years ago
We are NOT doing that in a DE Sampler session

Metro allows anything. Pretty much will only see them in green anyway.

Can I try some hot laps in my Ram 3500 DRW? Hanging a 4-wheels tail out is better than 2.

I don't see anything wrong with that. Afterall doesn't the saying go: Its about the people, not the cars? BTW, I've seen Pannys in solo (2nd group from bottom in my area).

Each region can enhance (?) the DE min stds to their liking. Its now "the people's" choice where to hang their hat.

What's more fun is when a race breaks out during van-arounds!
