Autocross at PEC LA

Porsche Experience Center LA

About this event

Autocross at PECLA: Sponsored by HOUSE Automotive & Porsche Santa Clarita

This will be our first autocross event and will be similar to the one hosted by PEC LA for their Third Anniversary celebration with the notable difference that you get to drive your own Porsche!  Registration is open to all Porsches model year 1990 or later with exceptions granted to older models on a case-by-case basis if they are equipped with ABS and steering wheel airbags (PEC rules). 

Base ticket price is $120.  An instructor (radio-based, due to the pandemic) is also available for an additional $35 fee.  Hit Continue below to reserve your time slot. 

There will be ten run group windows from 12 PM to 4:30 PM (inclusive).  A maximum of 5 people can sign up for each window and each person will be allotted 6 laps.  You may sign up for multiple windows.    (NOTE: due to budget limitations, only one instructor slot is available per window -- if you want to have multiple slots with an instructor, you'll need to sign up for two windows).

The course will be marked with cones (designed by PEC) on the Dynamics Pad, which will be the only accessible part of the facility on event day.  Helmets are not required.  Please click Continue below for a list of rules and technical requirements set by PEC.

PSA: No food or drinks will be provided due to cost and COVID-19 considerations, so please bring your own water bottles.
