About this event
PORSCHE HERITAGE CONCOURS & TOUR
PCA-CHS 2021 Tour & Rally Event No. 10 – Sept. 5
ENTER YOUR PORSCHE IN A CONCOURS, GET A CHANCE TO LEARN HOW TO JUDGE OTHER MEMBERS’ CARS, AND ENJOY A FUN DRIVE.
PCA Chesapeake’s Tour & Rally Committee and Concours Committee are pleased to jointly offer a light concours with a judging school, as well as a driving tour. This double-barreled event promises to be both a fun-filled gathering and a great learning opportunity. Participants will get a chance to experience the process of concours judging and then to pick the winners of class awards, as well as the recipient of the Best of Show honor. Our hope is that this will serve as a warmup to the Chesapeake Challenge Concours.
Vintage and modern Porsches are welcome, but we particularly encourage owners of older Porsches to bring and show their cars. The owner of the oldest Porsche at this event will receive a special prize. We envision this gathering as a celebration of Porsche’s 73-year heritage and a delightful treat to driving enthusiasts.
Scenic Drive – Join the fun and enjoy your Porsche!
