To all our international friends you are invited to the following event should you be in the UK, or wish to visit the UK.................

These are the full details of the 924 Owners Club's 35th anniversary of the UK launch of the 924, celebrations with help from Porsche Cars Great Britain

This is a very specal event which I hope many will want to be part of

It is to be held on Sunday April 15th at Porsche Experience Centre on the edge of Silverstone circuit.

It will be a breakfast-club style meet, 9am - 12noon

Porsche are opening the premises especially for us, which we''ll have full use of.

Entry is by car pass only with a charge of £7.50 per car. The cost to open the centre is considerable and Porsche Cars GB have been very kind in helping us with this event.

Their restaurant will be open for refreshments.

Passenger rides around their tracks for a small fee.

Parade lap for 924s probably led by a 911 or Panamera

There is a F2 meeting on at the main circuit that weekend, there’s a good roof viewing area in the Experience Centre for the track, but people could stay and watch more racing in the afternoon. The trackside is easily accessible from the venue without paying for entry.

We are in the process of obtaining press coverage of the event from one or more of the major titles.

This will be the biggest gathering of 924s in a very long time

I hope to see as many of you there as possible ! :occasion5:

Anyone is of course welcome to attend but car registrations and fees need to be in to the 924 owners club in advance to get passes sorted.

No one will be able to get in on the day as you won't have a car pass.

924s only please.....

Hey Dick, can you do us all a favo(u)r and remove the graphic from your signature. You may not have noticed, but we don't do that around here. Sort of an unwritten gentleman's agreement...

Willing to do this in Portland any time. . .and we now have two more tracks to choose from for track time within a couple hours of town.

Also, if you don't want to flog your toofah, we have a first class outdoor karting track as well.

Rasta, we are still contemplating Parade 2012 (Salt Lake City), and Parade 2013 (Traverse City MI!!!) is a no-brainer for us. Are you planning to attend either one?

I'm trying to figure out how to get the 941, the 937, the Club Sport, a suburban, a travel trailer, two Great Pyrenees dogs, and the wife all to SLC. The wife hates long driving stints, and it's 24 hours of driving one way to SLC. Need moar drivers!!!
