April is not Porsche Month so much

Well, the only thing the 911 and I did this month is the HPDC earlier in the month. I was wait listed for the Driver Education event and did not get in. I was suppose to be in Hershey, PA for the All Porsche Swap Meet, but I am traveling out to Hannover, Germany to art direct a photo shoot of Hannover 96, a global football team. Germany will be fun, but a ton of work while we are there. At least I get to go to Germany again and see cool Euro cars!

High Performance Driving Clinic

WHAT A GREAT EVENT! The Potomac PCA put on a HPDC yesterday at Summit Point Motorsports Park. EVERYBODY who drives should take a class like this. There is basic driving education... is far beyond anything I ever learned in drivers ed. in high school.

We did some classroom education. On the track we did braking, throttle and skid pad exercises.
All of which was fun and exciting.

The best part was in the afternoon... we had two 20 minute sessions on the track. OMG! I love driving on the track at full speeds. We had an instructor in the car who helped us with learning the lines, finding the apex and to yell at you when you did something wrong. Genius. Fun. I couldn't wipe the smile off my face. i can't wait for my next track event.

The Gold-Plated Porsche: How I Sank a Small Fortune into a Used Car, and Other Misadventures

I just started reading this last night. It is a easy read for anyone. Especially fun if you have ever picked up a wrench to fix something on their car minor or major. Definitely inspiring but I doubt I'll ever go that far with the 911.

HPDC this weekend..... so excited!
