This is great - thank you Tom. Good to see our fantastic region, Musik-Stadt leading the way!

I hope this catches on with a whole lot of PCA members and other Porsche clubs around the globe!

Trying to get the regions forums going so I figured as a way to generate some activity on the new forum I'd do a "mention" to you and post a question regarding the pic from Polecat that you posted some time ago. Have you run the track and if so, when and with whom? (I just posted a PTC pic from last year in the Racing sub-forum.)

My picture from PTC was last Fall with the Harpeth Car Club. If you aren't familiar with them it's a great group. They do poker runs and track days several times throughout the year, with all of the benefits going to charity. They did a track day at PTC again earlier this year but I couldn't make it.

I think they have an outing lined up this Fall for a tour and some parade laps at the new track in Crossville.

Fantastic Ryan!

That recent HCC/Drivin' Life event was on Sat June 10th last month

I was there with HCC and Owen - that's me and my white GT4 on pit row in the in the middle of your first instagram pic. (Your Instagram pics are from this year's HCC event that was held last month.)

Jade Buford was there too and he and Owen did lead/follows for the drivers who were brand new to track days. I did a few lead-follows for more experienced drivers who were new to Polecat. (I've been to every event with Owen since he started doing them last year - I love the place.)

Owen has two more private track days at PTC this fall in Sep & Oct. I'll be there for both of those. Come join us if you can!

Also please check out the spreadsheets I do every year for track events in our part of the country. I have a small dedicated group on my email list but I also have them on a Carpokes thread here:
viewtopic.php?t=1605

I've been doing these spreadsheets for over 10-years as a help to others trying to organize and plan track days. They are a PITA to compile and produce but they are a great help.

If you are part of HCC, please let me know what they have planned for 2024 track events and I'll add them when I put the list together late December/early January. By the way, they don't have anything on their website regarding Flatrock so if you get that info please share it with me.

I should have known you were already plugged in with HCC. Chris told me the Fall event with Flatrock is still in the planning stages. I'm sure he will send out an email blast when it's finalized.

I'm hesitant to take my turbo out on the track much right now since the coolant lines are not pinned. The last place I would want them to go is on track - that could ruin everyone's day. It's on my agenda to get addressed but it's a costly engine out service with a long list of "while you are in there" tacked on so I am dragging my feet.

I hear you on that reluctance. Even though my Turbo S has no service needs (I guess that's obvious since it's new), I remain hesitant to put it on track for a variety of reasons. It's never been on track - the GT4 fulfills that chore for me.

Anyway, should you get the WYAIT services done, come on out - it will be nice at PTC this Fall. Could take a relaxing country ride to even if not getting on track. Polecat is in the sticks after all!
