Hi everyone,

Hey Brother,
Congrats!
Get on the P-Car Illuminati group on Whatsapp.
There are drives and activities going on multiple times a week in Miami.
These are non-PCA events.
DO NOT mention that I told you.

Rico set up some of the best drives a few years back when we had a tight group that met monthly. That was a large part of the reason John allowed me to create this subset 100 years ago (seems that long). I had tried PCA, but wanted more "just get out there and drive" and less politics. Do a Rico Run; you'll enjoy it.

I tried getting in touch with Keith mid February through Whatsapp but I didnt get any response. He’s got a 996 cab on his profile pic?

Porsche West Broward is having an event from 9a-12p this Sunday if you are interested. Seems like they'll have the beginning of the 12 hours of Sebring on the big TV in the showroom.

Yes I'll be there for probably an hour or so. And if you ever want to get out on the track, I'm an instructor with two different HPDE groups - FARA and Chin.

I’ll be there, orlando got canceled. Awesome that youre an instructor. I’ve been tracking for 5/6 yrs in a bmw 125i (128i here) e82 and a GR Yaris in Argentina. But ive never done the tracks in the US, and never driven a mid engine car on track.

I think you'll be very pleased with the GT4 on the track. Homestead is a nice facility, only a couple of spots to get in trouble, smooth track, relatively easy to learn. Sebring is the opposite of all of that, which is what makes it so special. I'm pretty sure that Keith - the admin of the PCI group that adds people to it, will be at PWB tomorrow (that's where I met him). Say hi if you see me - at 6'5", I'm hard to miss.

Mike
