About this event
Mural at The Stable by CCCR member Chuck Jennings
Join the California Central Coast Porsche Region for a day at the new Buttonwillow racetrack, "The Circuit" on May 30th for a noon time Parade Lap and or the Trrack Experience Program..
If you register for the Parade Lap, you will follow a Pace Car around the track for a 25 minute session. This is a fantastic way to experience a drive on a professional race track at speeds limited to no more than 70mph. You will follow a pace car around the track, learning the turn in and braking points, where to start acceleration after the corner. This is safest way to experience the track, other than seat belts, safety equipment is not required, passengers are encouraged. We have run these Parade Laps at many of our driving events with many positive reactions from the participants. This is perfect for the lower powered cars such as a 356 or early 911 models.
We are also offering, on a very limited basis, a DE Track Experience program. You will ride along with a PCA approved Instructor for a 20 or 25 minute session during the Drivers Education event. You can ride in the instructor’s car or the instructor can drive your car with you as a passenger. As you go through the track, the instructor will instruct you on process of driving on a race track. PCA will let us have three instructors participate in this program, depending on the instructor registrations, this could be a very limited opportunity. Please register on a first come first served basis, when we know how many instructors we have available, we will determine how many spots we will be able to fill.. You will need to attend a short talk prior to entering the track. Helmets will be available for rent.
