Look for the parking Corral as you enter the park at the bottom of the hill. However, please keep in mind this Porsche parking Corral is a self-policing perk extended to us by the Ault Park organiz- ers for Porsche car drivers to congregate. If you are driving your Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Vista Cruiser Station Wagon with Wood Paneling that day, Porsche Club member- ship does not extend a parking space to your Oldsmobile, or for that matter your Yugo, Simca, Renault, Fiat or Lada. But if you want to drive your Tatra that day, talk to me and I will get you special dispensation to park in the Porsche Corral. So come early, stay late, all your Porsche friends will be there. If I get there first, I will chalk a blue line on the ground Peck Hannaford + Briggs at the entrance. If you get there first, you rub it out.

  • Press Release March 16, 2019
    Press Release March 16, 2019 Race GT, IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, round 2, Sebring/USA Super in Sebring: Porsche also wins the twelve-hour race Stuttgart. Porsche has notched up yet another victory at the “Super Sebring” race weekend. Nick Tandy (Great Britain) and his French teammates Patrick Pilet and Frédéric Makowiecki took the flag in first place in the Porsche 911 RSR at the twelve- hour race of the IMSA Weathertech SportsCar Championship. With this success, the trio in the No. 911 car have not only repeated their win from last year, but also rounded off an extremely successful weekend for Porsche. A day earlier, the ca. 510 hp racing car from Weissach had won both GTE classes at the 1,000-mile race of the Sports Car World Endurance Championship WEC. The No. 912 sister car driven by Earl Bamber (New Zealand), Laurens Vanthoor (Belgium) and Mathieu Jaminet (France) finished the thrilling long-distance classic in the USA on fifth place. Early on in the race, lack of grip in the heavy rain initially threw both Porsche 911 RSR down the field. As conditions improved at the half-way point of the race, the experienced Porsche GT Team utilised every last strength of the car. Thanks to great tactics, top-class driving and flawless teamwork, the No. 911 car fought its way back into the lead. In a gripping finale, Nick Tandy fended off all attacks and crossed the finish line after twelve hours with a 1.951-second lead. Tandy, Pilet and Makowiecki are the first driver trio to win the IMSA race at Sebring twice in a row.
