The Prez’s Corner .......

Wow it is April already?! We are one-quarter of the way through 2023, and I’m sure none of us have driven our Porsches as much as we want. The weather has taken a turn for the better now (hopefully), so all of us can get our Porsches out and really drive them!

The recent Buona Tavola lunch tour was totally sold out and had a great array of Porsches lined up and ready to go at Porsche San Luis Obispo! I want to extend my thanks to Sam, Kurt, and the whole gang at Porsche San Luis Obispo for everything they are doing for our Region. The excitement from members when starting an event at our new Porsche dealer is quite apparent. The hospitality, coffee, and food that is offered to us before each event is great and much appreciated! Seeing all our Porsches in the parking lot intermingled with the new cars is sensational!

By the time you read this, Phase II of Porsche Parade registration will be underway. There are over 3000 people already registered for 2023 Parade at La Quinta! There is going to be an amazing collection of Porsches roaming the streets of the Palm Springs area this June. It is not too late to get registered for the Parade. Just go to https://porscheparade.org/ for all the latest information and to sign up. I have received email from a few of you letting me know that you are participating in Parade. Once we arrive at La Quinta and get the lay of the land, I will be figuring out how/ when/where to have a reception for CCCR members

some evening during Parade. Please email me if you are coming to Parade!

The first Autocross and Drivers Education events are fast approaching. Autocross School on Saturday April 15th is nearly sold out, as is the full day Autocross on Sunday April 16th. Log on to motorsportreg. com to grab one of the few remaining spots! Our first DE is May 5th at Buttonwillow Raceway. There is still room for you and your Porsche to participate in the full DE or in the Parade Lap session. The June 26th DE at iconic Weathertech Laguna Seca Raceway is open for registration as well. If you have never driven your Porsche down the Corkscrew, this is the year to do it! Registration for all DEs is on motorsportreg.com.

Our CCCR website is going to undergo some major architecture and design changes led by our new Webmaster Scot Burns. The new site should be more streamlined and easier to navigate, and we want it to be more interactive and tied in better with social media platforms. Stay tuned!

Hope to see you at an event soon! Let’s Drive!
