The agency handling PCA’s insurance is Weisenberg Insurance, who also writes coverage for many other racing organizations including SCCA and BMW CCA. Despite the overall increases in cost that must be absorbed by PCA, I am pleased to report that most regions will be paying about the same amount or less than they did in the previous policy year. Only a few of the very large races will see a slight cost increase. This is even considering that the amount of motor sports liability coverage that PCA now carries has been substantially increased. Many thanks to the Executive Council and Insurance Committee for taking care of us racers. I would like to personally thank all the racers who have volunteered to be Mentors for one of our rookies.

Not content to stay stagnate, our Club Racing program continues to evolve. In 2011, we began the BFGoodrich Tires SCCA Super Tour program. With the help of our partner, BFGoodrich Tires, the series expanded to nine events for 2012, and included one special event in each division. These race weekends featured elements that aren’t always available at National Races, adding to the competitors’ experi- ence. We also unveiled the Majors program in the middle part of the coun- try this season, giving racers in the Rocky Mountain, Midwest and Southwest Divisions an opportunity to run for a larger championship without having to travel the country.

Wrapping your fingers around the leather-clad steering wheel of your new sports car for the first time. Pressing down on the accelerator of your 911 and feeling the adrenaline flow through your body. What these situations have in common? They are all moments of that rare, intensive, here-and-now kind; snapshots destined to become lasting memories. They are the points in time at which we write history, be it sports car history or our own personal vacation story. At Porsche, we have used the 2017 vacation season to add a few precious snapshot moments to our own biography. We traveled to Gran Canaria with our fashion collection and, ever intrepid, tried our hand at sailing on the Atlantic Ocean. We also snuck a peek at the Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur’s latest masterpiece, drawing inspiration from it for the new 911 Collection photo shoot. Sunny Florida was another of our stops. Here, we took the 911 speaker with us to the recently inaugurated Porsche Design Tower in Miami, filling the new space with our favorite songs and imbuing it with the feel of a real Porsche 911 GT3.
