Annual GGR Porboys Beginner Autocross School !!!!!!!!!
Register now -- space is limited.
It is that time of year to start thinking about all of the great Porsche driving opportunities in 2013. On Sunday May 19, Howard Yao, and John Seidell will again run this school. It is really for beginners or people who have autocrossed only a few times. If you have ever wondered what it is like to experience driving your Porsche on the edge (but safely in control) then this is for you. This is a good safe place for drivers to learn about the handling of their Porsche.

Photos/Video from Thunderhill (Clockwise!) [Updated]
Thank enthusiastic participant Jason Polychronopoulos for sharing photos and some in-car video from GGR's recent event at Thunderhill going in the unconventional but equally fun clockwise direction.
Chief Driving Instructor John Tavernetti has graciously agreed to share his YouTube page with us which contains videos of his excellent driving at not only TH clockwise, but all the tracks we run. John's videos include data overlay so you can see the cornering speeds, and the smooth build up and decline of lateral g-forces. It's also good if you are watching at work and can't listen with the volume up! Here's his page: John's YouTube videos.

Take a few moments to enjoy the literally hundreds of photos from our Driver's Education/Timed Runs and PCA Club Race event at Buttonwillow that Greg Phillips has kindly shared with us.
