Fletcher Jones Porsche Sponsors Drivers Education Event…              Thunderhill August 3, 2007

Hosted by the Diablo Region PCA

 

Summary: This Driver’s Education (DE) event will be a non-competitive single day outing at Thunderhill racetrack, run under PCA National Drivers Education Guidelines expressly for Porsche cars and PCA members. We are also pleased to announce that local premier dealership Fletcher Jones Porsche of Fremont have returned as overall Sponsor for this 2007 event.  The event’s objective is to provide the opportunity for Porsche Club members, including those having little or no track experience, to safely learn the techniques of driving a high speed road course while operating under expert supervision and instruction. Only Porsche cars will be permitted on track for this event.

 

Price Structure: The “early bird” registration fee per driver will be $180 (includes lunch) for those who register and pay before special “early bird” pricing ends July 6. Regular registration will then run from July 7 until July 27 with a fee of $205 (includes lunch).  After July 27, late fee pricing will be $235 (includes lunch).  The registration fee for qualified PCA Event Instructors (who also drive) will be $80 before July 14.  After July 14, Instructor registration will be $100 (lunch included).

 

Featuring: This DE event comprises traditional Novice, Intermediate, and Advanced Run Groups. Openings for pure Novice drivers are expected to be limited, so Novice drivers are encouraged to register as early as possible.  Per PCA guidelines, pure Novice Drivers will be paired with an Event Instructor/s until the Novice has demonstrated the skill sets necessary for solo track driving.  Special Note for Novices: “Ground School”, or rather the PCA requisite pre-event safety and procedures briefing, will be provided at the track the morning of the event.  Novices, regardless of PCA affiliation, therefore are not required to have attended prior classroom activity before this track day.
