Welcome from Kurt Eckhardt & Steve Hogge, Our New Track Directors

January has been an exciting month for the track program. But, before I tell you about that, Steve and I want to express our sincere gratitude for the trust you have placed in us as your new Co-Track Directors. We have very big shoes to fill with Jim McClelland and Scott Kalkin handing off the baton, but we also have an extraordinary track team whom we’d like to thank for helping us make the transition nearly seamless. Everyone has been working quite hard in the offseason to bring the 2026 track program to life.  Dan, David, Tony, Parker, Richard, Sharon, Karen, and Milo - your knowledge, dedication, and commitment are invaluable. Thank you.

So, what is happening in January? Contracts! We have officially signed contracts for events at Sonoma, Buttonwillow, Thunderhill and are working with PCA National to lock in dates for our club races. It’s going to be a fun and exciting season. In fact, if you haven’t already signed up, then please do so now. Our February and March events are right around the corner at Thunderhill Raceway so this is the perfect time to give your Porsche a chance to stretch its legs.  

If you have never been to a track day then you are in for an unforgettable experience. We have a wonderful core of experienced instructors who will guide you safely around the track and help you explore what our Porsches were made to do. I guarantee you'll wear a smile on your face for weeks!

Finally, this season we are making schedule improvements to give you more track time and higher quality sessions by separating the intermediate and advanced run groups. We are also offering, for a limited time, a season pass discount which is a 15% savings off regular prices.

Please check out our full calendar of events and sign up at motorsportreg today.  We are very excited to kick things off and can’t wait to see you at the track!

Sincerely,

Kurt Eckhardt & Steve Hogge
