Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch


The Las Vegas Region, Porsche Club of America is planning another track day weekend at Spring Mountain on November 18 through 20 (the weekend before Thanksgiving), and COCSD will be there!

Although this event is put on by a Porsche club, it is open to all makes of cars.  A lot of Corvette owners attend.  More information about their program can be found at http://lvs.pca.org/drivered.htm

There WILL be a beginner’s group, with in-car instruction.  There will be novice, intermediate and advanced run groups for those with track experience.   THIS EVENT WILL SELL OUT, so do not wait!!  Register Here!

The Porsche Club runs the safest and best organized track events in which we have participated.  The Spring Mountain facility is first-class, with one of the best tracks we’ve driven.  We will be running the new Charleston Peak 3.24-mile course.

For the first time, this will be a 3-day event.  Friday will be an open track day, with no run groups or set sessions.  No beginners will be allowed to run on Friday.  It’s largely for instructors who have never run this configuration, so they can learn the track before guiding their student on Saturday and Sunday.  All experienced drivers can sign up for all 3 days.

Saturday and Sunday will be run as they have in the past, with all four run groups on Saturday.  Students will get classroom and skidpad instruction on Saturday and will run on the track with an instructor on Saturday afternoon and all day on Sunday.  The student and novice groups will be combined on Sunday.

The cost for all 3 track days is $700.  For two track days, it is $500.  However, the LVR PCA offers us a discount, if we reach a minimum threshold of registrants.  If we get at least 5 paid 2-day registrants, there will be a $50 refund credited to each registrant’s card shorty after the event.  If we get at least 10 paid registrants (which is very possible), the refund is $75.

Included in the registration fee is a free BYOB pizza night on Saturday.  Box lunches will be available on Saturday and Sunday for $20 each.

Because Pahrump is 320 miles from San Diego, we typically drive up on Friday morning.   And to avoid Sunday evening traffic from Las Vegas, many stay in town (or drive over the mountain to Las Vegas) Sunday night and drive home on Monday.  Those registered for Friday will go up on Thursday.

We recommend participants reserve a cottage at Wine Ridge RV Resort & Cottages https://wineridgervresort.com/ for Friday through Sunday night (Monday checkout).  The cost and other details will be determined.  If you prefer a hotel, two options are the Best Western, and the Holiday Inn Express.
