High Plains Raceway

About this event

 

 THE DOG DAYS OF SUMMER DE

  August 13 & 14, 2016

 

Our charity for the event is the Humane Society Denver area.   A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the animal shelter.  Such good cause and one we all take responsibility  for whether you have a pet or not.  
 
We are expecting a major turnout for this event.   After the track is closed we will have beer thirty offering a wide variety of popular brews.  It's then time to meet new friends and let the day's events sink in. Talk with the instructors and other capable drivers as well as other students for their impression of the day at the track.
 
You do not need to bring your Porsche to attend   This DE is for all makes and instruction will be available for all new drivers (but only SUV’s with the Porsche marque are allowed).     However, Pretech will be at the track for a small fee.   For first timers, numbers for your car for ID will be given at registration. 
 
Ok all procrastinators, it's time to get that Driver Instruction you have been thinking about.  These two days are the best opportunity of the year for all levels of experience.  Guaranteed perfect weather and track temperatures will make your Porsche drive like it's on rails.  Many instructors will be here to provide gobs of information about this track, handling of your car and the elements of driving your car at speed on a challenging course.
