I just want to clarify some things about the PCA Parde next year, because I suddenly realized that maybe some of those interested are not aware of the rules, which are routine to me after 34 years of membership.
1. To participate - you MUST be a member of PCA. Yep, you have to pay dues - $42/yr at last count. Worth every buck. Not a member - can't do the Parade. You can spectate at will - just can't participate in any events. 2. This thing lasts a week! Longer for serious concours people. There is NO tougher concours, rally, technical or autocross series of events for a porsche owner - NONE. Every event is the toughest. You don't have to enter every event either. Just play where you're comfortable. My eye coordination sucks anymore, so I'll no longer be doing the autocross. 3. To play, you must abide by the PCR's (Parade Competition Regulations), and they require some study (available at pca.org). These ARE the rules - you must play by them. Get 'em, read 'em, absorb 'em. If you have questions about any aspect, there is a PCR Committee. They administer & debate the rules. I can help you get in touch with them, if necessary. PLEASE - read the rules before you ask questions. 4. This NOT unstructured, "seat of the pants" stuff. It's the Big Leaques! You abide by the Judge's(concours) decision, or protest. BTW, the judges are the BEST there is - look at the name badges & be humbled that they are judging your 914. These guys & gals are not just yanked from the crowd - they're groomed & they're usually the best. 5. Mostly, since you know the rules, chill! Enjoy the buds you are surrounded with. These are people you make lifelong realtionships with. I know I can't wait to make some new face-to-face realtionships, though I'm making every effort to whip you. But, in the long run - who cares who wins. Pat |

When & how does one register for next summer? What are the fees? I am a PCA member & got that much down (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) . Look for notices in Panorama (the PCA's monthly mag for those not familiar). The entry registration form is usually made available in March with instructions for how and when to submit it. The online entry is the best way to go. I expect the next Parade will be sold out rather quickly as the Parade will be the first East coast Parade since 2005 and the 2009 is likely to go out to Colorado from what I heard. Start by downloading the current PCR's and checking out the Concours event rules. |
