Event requirements
As you work your way through the E-registration process you will be asked the following:
- How many people are coming and what are their names? Are any of them children under 13?
- What kind of Porsche are you bringing? We need this to block out the People's Choice Concours area (OK if it changes later, just update stevegross@ameritech.net).
- Will you be participating in the TSD rally or the driving tour? Note that due to time constraints, you cannot do both the TSD rally and the driving tour.
TSD RALLY: You will need two people per car minimum (driver and navigator). In case you're not familiar with TSD rallies, they are competitions where a driver and navigator must stay on a specific route at specific speeds (that are at or under the posted speed limit) and go through a number of checkpoints. The goal is to follow the route correctly and arrive precisely on time at the various checkpoints. Your score is based on how close you get to the perfect time at each checkpoint. Basically, it's a nice scenic drive in your Porsche with some friendly competition thrown in!
