Every year PCA Parade is hosted by a different city, for 2007 San Diego will be Porsche central for the week of July 1 - 5. Although the traditional major events that happen at every Porsche Parade will still happen, Concours, Autocross, Rally, Tech quiz etc., there will be a few “extra curricular” activities, or variations of the usual events intended to give visitors a taste of San Diego. These include such things as a beach party, a day at Sea World, tours of San Diego back-roads and a victory banquet for around 1300 people - on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier in San Diego bay. |

So how does one get in to the Porsche Paddock? Well, at the end of April there will be an announcement on the Parade website (for access see paragraph above) stating that the Porsche Paddock registration is now open. This will provide a form which you can print and complete providing details of your Porsche and contact data for you. You will then be required to mail this completed form with a check for $20 payable to PCA. You will be notified when your check has been received and you are in the Paddock. |

As our cars get to be 13 or 14 years old, things start to wear out and consumable items start to illustrate just how consumable they really are. All things from wheel bearings, to clutches, to minor things like headlight bulbs. Surprisingly enough, when it comes to something as simple as replacing a headlight bulb there is room for making a mistake - especially if you are from the “I taught myself how to maintain my car” school of Engineering. |

Knowing that there were only 701 RSAs ever built, and seeing at the top of this page that the RSA registry currently has 350 members.
