Red Porsches
at Concours |
There are several types of concours, or cleaning up your car and seeing how it measures up to others in your class. Some simply have the owner arrive and clean, say, a door, while others go whole hog and judge with the proverbial white gloves and Q-tips. Either way, concours always offer the opportunity to see some great Porsches of all vintages and styles.
You don't have to have a fancy car to come to our concours. Sometimes, we go all-out (sort of, but not really), and sometimes, all you need to do is wipe down a small portion of your car. The real point of our concours is to show off our pretty Porsches and have a great time doing so. Besides, it's fun to see all those perky Porsches lined up next to and across from one another. We also have other marques shown which makes it even more interesting.
One of
the things we run each year is a Charity Concours to benefit the American Cancer
Society. We are excited to be running this year’s event at the Ingram
Collection parking lot in Brightleaf Square in Durham, NC. Directions and a map
may be found on the Calendar page. Please plan to arrive between 8:00 AM and 10:00 AM to get your car(s) positioned. In order to increase the amount of money raised for the American Cancer Society, we will open the gates to the public from 10:00 AM till 2:00 PM. The cars will be roped off to protect them from the overly curious and sticky fingered. As in the past, the entrants are the judges and will vote for first through third place in each division as well as Best in Show. This is a People’s-Choice-type Concours, so just wash the car up and bring it out. Awards, door prizes, and raffle winners will be announced shortly after 2:00. We have also invited some other car clubs to participate, so please plan to attend and support this worthwhile cause.
Registration is $20 per car for advance registration received by May 9, 2008, and $25/car for registration received after that. You can even come last minute and bring your check and registration form to the "gate." Please send your check payable to "Hurricane Region, PCA" and mail it along with the registration to Fred Grossfeld. (Late-comers should bring both check and registration form with them.) You'll find Fred's address and contact information at the bottom of the registration form in either PDF or Word below.

And later in the year, stay tuned for our annual Oktoberfest, another great event for the family (see Calendar).
