I was the only Porsche at the SCCA autocross school. Sad. FedEx seems like a fantastic course to learn and I had a blast. Kudos to the dad who had his teenager there driving a 30 year old GTI. Looking forward to 5/28

Splain the "sad"? Is it that we don't have our modest events at the most expensive lot around?

Yep. I was the only Porsche. Got to talk to many folks and was really interesting seeing how various cars suspensions/brakes behaved under pressure. Fancy cars don't make for a fast times necessarily.
Two thumbs up for the teenager who showed up driving mom's cast off grocery getter. His dad was there in full support as well as the SCCA guys helping plug a flat. You guys are ok.
