Laguna Seca with the PCA for THREE days Sept 9-11.

aus · 07-12-2011, 05:31 PM

Thought this was a great deal for Laguna Seca since it's a weekend too.
Fri/Sat/Sun for $495 is a great price.

I just don't know if instruction is extra.

So you don't need to own a p-car? That is a killer deal.

I run with PCA GGR and don't own a Porsche. They do require you go through their New Driver check. Not sure about the Central Coast chapter but I've run with them too and they're a great group.

Check their Website for qualifications requirements.

Is instruction extra?
Do they have passing zones and point-by's for intermediate people?

yes and yes. Check their website for more information.

Seriously considering doing this, as long as I can sign up without owning a Porsche.

Got put on a waitlist.

I think they tend to put the non-members on a waitlist.
Just go get a Porsche dude.

My wife didn't say no, but got to find someone to take the kids.

#@$%^!! waitlisted

mid-corner fun · 07-14-2011, 12:16 PM

On the east coast, they open registration for non-members 1-2 weeks after regular registration, so yeah, chances are you'll get waitlisted here too. Typically though they'll recognize repeat non-member registrants and act accordingly.

This year 4 out of my 5 events were with PCA, none with CCA. The dynamics of running together with p-cars mostly are quite interesting. Way more challenging than the typical CCA crews.

Not to mention that I now have my eye on a 996 TT for next year's DE season

Man, that price is fantastic!! Too bad I can't make it

All my track funds being sucked into home remodeling & repairs. How domestic, lol.

You could have flown by me in my E36 M3. I highly recommend taking part in PCA events. Great group and they are very interested in you becoming a faster driver so the instruction is a little different than BMWCCA.

jbass524 · 07-21-2011, 07:23 PM

I'm in....phew. This'll be fun. The first time with a manual at Laguna

twinturbopg · 08-09-2011, 12:13 PM

damn just saw this...maybe next time...I heard they are very sensitive on the db level especially for the BMW folks...but if you go in your lambo they wont say anything. just a heads up from other folks that have gone to this track.
