Join us for the Porsche Owners Club’s June event at The Streets of Willow. The weekend will feature our Performance Driving Series along with our Time Attack classes. This event is expected to be very popular and may sell out quickly so please register ASAP as we are limited on space. There are currently three Time Trial groups and two PDS run groups scheduled. Each run group is scheduled for four on-track sessions. Those wishing to enter their results in both events may do so at an additional fee. “Same-Day” registration only available if spots are not filled – event will likely sell out prior. Please note the EARLY BIRD PRICING OFFER ends December 8th at midnight. Event cancellations must be received by January 4th at midnight for a refund.
New Car Classification System! The POC completely revamped our car classification system last year (2018). These new classes are weight/WHP based using the Porsche factory HP listings. To help with the process I would like all new registrants to send me a simple list of any modifications made to the car and the DOT rating on the tires you will be using. The DOT tire ratings are most important as only tires with a >/= 200 UTQG rating are allowed in the Stock classes. POC's 2018 General Competition Rules (GCR's) have incorporated the new classification system in RED starting in paragraph 15.0: POC 2018 GCR - General Competition Rules - 12 24 17 - VFinal - 5 (2).pdf
