PCA Chesapeake region
Event #2 on June 01, 2024
Bowie Bay Stadium
It's rare you get to put third gear to REAL use at an autocross, but the recent Porsche Club of America (PCA) event at the Bowie Baysox stadium did not disappoint! it was fun to use the gearbox and keep the footwork fresh with the shifting, and it was just as fun to watch cars blast down the hill at 70+ mph as it was to attack the course myself. Hats off to the course designer for a ballsy course! Full weekend highlights reel coming soon....
