Discussion of financials of the track program - despite some losses on individual events, we’ve received material sponsorships and PCA National reimbursements, and we are in a healthy state
Laguna Seca event on July 31 - Aug 2: have filled 40 DE slots (with some folks on waitlist) and Club Racing registration opening soon with strong interest
Beginning to collaborate with tracks on dates for 2027
Steve has run his 718 GT4 with other modern GT cars at Laguna Seca during 92 dB-limit events with Hooked on Driving, and no street cars were flagged for sound, so future 92 dB DE-only days there are a possibility
Collaborating with Porsche Track Experience organizer at Laguna Seca about how to align our instruction with what participants in that program learn and cross-promote
Sponsorship update: 8 organizations sponsoring the program, with about half the committed money already collected
Discussion around running DE sessions “windows-up”, which will require checking with each track about their specific policies
