2021 Track 101 DE

Track 101 DE

Sunday, August 8, 2021

Registration opens on June 8th for the event planned just for beginner track drivers!  RMR-PCA and our sponsors All Copy Products, Denver Auto Shield, Dr. Lisa Hunsicker of Revalla Plastic Surgery and Medical Aesthetics, and Hagerty Insurance are pleased to announce our beginner High Performance Driver Education event at the Colorado State Patrol (CSP) Track in Golden, Colorado. 

All drivers welcome! “First-timers” are welcomed and encouraged! In fact, each year many of our drivers have never been on a track before. Additionally, whether this is your first time on the track or you have experience, we have a run group to match your skills.
The event is open to all makes of cars (see Important Notice below). Convertibles must have roll-over protection. SUVs must be German manufactured. If you are unsure, contact our CDIs and they will make the final determination. 

Registration opens on Tuesday, June 8th and closes on Monday, August 2nd, 2021. You must be registered by August 2nd in order to participate.  

This event is limited to 60 drivers. This is a very popular event and we encourage you to register quickly before it sells out!

Important Notice: Due to space constraints at the CSP track, attendance will be limited this year. Preference will be given to Porsche Club of America (PCA) members. Interested non-PCA members should still sign up as soon as possible. Any remaining slots will be released to non-PCA members on July 19th in order of registration.

Cost is $105 per driver, which includes a fun-filled day of driving, instruction and catered lunch. Additional lunches for your friends and family can be purchased when registering for an additional $10 per lunch. There are no concessions available at the track, so please plan accordingly with snacks and sports drinks, etc. We will provide cold water. Bring your own chair, as there will be limited space under the tent.

Please be aware that due to the layout of this track, you will not be able to enter or leave while the track is in use.  Coming and going will only be available at the start of the day, during lunch, and after the event. A schedule will be provided closer to the event.

You must wear cotton shirts, cotton pants or shorts, and closed-toe shoes when driving. Bring or borrow a helmet (Snell Rated 2010 or newer). There will be a few loaner helmets available. Also, cars must pass a technical inspection. We highly recommend you have your car pre-teched during the arranged tech inspection sessions. This free tech inspection helps catch potential problems in plenty of time for them to be corrected before your track day. 

Orientation meeting via Zoom: We will be having a highly recommended orientation meeting for first-time attendees via Zoom on Monday, July 26th. What to expect, including what to bring, why attend a pre-tech session, instruction, and more will all be covered. (Returning attendees are welcome to attend for a refresher on procedures.)

Meeting date and time: July 26th, 2021 from 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM. Register at: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUvfuGvrDgpHdaZmHJa0z4P2IBJqOds1Q8n

This Event will be using Deferred Billing. If you are paying with a credit card, it will not be charged until Wednesday, August 4, 2021.
