Winter – the season we have to get through to get to our DE track events.

When looking at the schedule, you will notice that we have a lot of Mondays at the beginning of the season and then a lot of Saturdays at the end of the season. We don’t get to pick our dates but instead, we are assigned our dates. For many years we only had split Saturdays (sharing the day every other hour with the Lime Rock Drivers Club) but last year we were lucky to get some full-day Saturdays. We lost our May Saturday event for 2020 (getting another Monday instead) but were able to keep all of the other Saturdays.
Hopefully, the DE calendar meshes with your personal calendar (work, family, vacations) and that you are able to come to Lime Rock or Watkins Glen for some driving, education and fun. All registration is on ClubRegistration.net. You can set a reminder for them to send you an email the morning of opening registration.
If you are totally new to DE, check out our DE page:
There is a video on what to expect at a track day (created by Todd Pajonas), a link to our DE Guide, links to the different tracks and all sorts of other information. But, if you still have a question, please send Mark Lewis (our Registrar) or me an email. We will find you an answer.
Our Winter Workshop Car Control Clinic is now open for Registration. We are hoping for snow but will hold the event with or without. Our first Winter Workshop Car Control Clinic (WWCCC) gave us 50-degree weather and misty rain. The drivers had a blast. Our second WWCCC was cold with snow on the ground. The drivers had a blast. With 4 weeks to go, it’s anyone’s guess as to what our conditions will be. But, snow or not, I’m pretty confident in saying that the drivers will once again have a blast.
The Winter Workshop Car Control Clinic is not just for Porsches. If you only have a dedicated track car and don’t want to trailer it to LRP, sign up with your Audi, VW, BWM, Tesla, etc. We’ve had a variety of ‘other cars’ for past WWCCC events. Just remember, no studded snow tires.
Thanks in advance to our shops: Automobile Associates of Canton, Daniel Jacobs LLC, Musante Motorsports and Speedsport Tuning and to our advertisers: Danbury Porsche, Elm City Trailer and Hagerty Insurance for their continued support of the CVR DE program. They are all part of our Winter Workshop and will have their logo printed on the shirt that every WWCCC participant will receive.
Enjoy winter – see you at the track (the DE season will be here before you know it).
