About this event
Porsche Club of America – San Diego Region welcomes you!
Join in for our second of two weekend events in the Nevada desert. We have two of the best weather weekends of the year at what, for many people, is the best track in the west, Spring Mountain. This event runs October 17-18. If you missed our May event at Spring Mountain you missed an amazing weekend – don't miss out twice! Those of you who did attend, come back and watch your driving skills and times improve!
Originally designed as a training facility for the national Corvette driving academy, the track has been meticulously designed to encompass one of every type of turn you might encounter at any other track. Most drivers find their car control skills jump to the next level after driving this track.
To register online and save up to $30, we require that you join our group here on MotorsportReg.com. Regardless of which region of PCA you belong to or if you don't belong to PCA at all, you must join the SDR group on this web site. This will be done as a step in the registration process.

Late Registration: You must register and pay by 11:59 pm October 2 to receive the discounted online rate; after that a $25 late fee applies through October 12. Online registration closes at 11:59 pm October 12, after which significantly higher on-site registration fees apply. If unable to register online, you may register by faxing in the standard form (higher fees apply).

Event requirements
Prior experience: Participants without a Zone 8 Competition Permit (or approved equivalent) must have completed at least 8 Autocross and/or DE and/or Driving School days or equivalent over the past 9 to 18 months.
All novice drivers will be required to have an Instructor. Drivers new to SDR events may also be required to have an Instructor until their competency has been demonstrated.
Pre-tech is strongly encouraged! Please try to take your car in for service and have it thoroughly inspected prior to this event. With two full days of our high track time event in the Nevada desert, you will want to be safe and have your car make it through the weekend. All entrants pre-teching must present a Tech Inspection form with name, address, phone, car, class, etc. to a qualified tech inspection shop. The form can be found at: http://www.pcasdr.org/img/pdf/general/axregform.pdf. Cars inspected by shops not personally known to the Registrar are subject to random on-site re-inspection.
PCA Zone 8 Driving Rules can be found here: http://zone8.pca.org/rules/2009/Z8Driving2009.pdf
If there are any changes to your registration data after the online registration deadline, you need to notify the Registrar by the day of the event BEFORE the first run session.
All entrants and guests shall be required to sign the PCA waiver upon registering at the track. This is in addition to any waiver that the track itself may require you to sign. You are responsible for your guests and may be asked to leave the event if your guests are found to have not signed the PCA waiver.
The track may charge its own separate nominal entrance fee. This fee does not go to PCA and is beyond our control.
Transponders: If you have a transponder, be sure you've entered the number under "My Account." (Hint: you do this where you edit your vehicle information.) If you don't have a transponder, they are available for rent and you must have a transponder to drive.
