Porsche Parade Express & Tail of the Dragon

Saturday June 28th – July 1st

No time, money or vacation days for a full week of Porsche Parade in Charlotte this year?

Gerhard Hillmann, our intrepid activities chairman, is putting together a four day road trip full of fun and adventure to this year’s Porsche Parade in (relatively) nearby Charlotte, North Carolina.

We will be departing central Ohio at 8:00am on Saturday morning and taking the scenic route through beautiful southern Ohio to pick up I-77 in West Virginia. Traveling the winding interstate at speed through the mountains and tunnels of West Virginia is some of the best interstate driving east of the Mississippi. We will stop along the way for lunch and scenic points of interest and should arrive in Charlotte in time for happy hour. A group of Carolina Region PCA folks will meet us for drinks and conversation at one of the local watering holes.

Stay at the Downtown Charlotte Westin, the Howard Johnson or, do as you did in college and sleep in your car. The trip is what you decide to make it.

Sunday we will spend the day on the streets of downtown Charlotte, enjoying the widest array of Porsches you may ever see, at the concours d’elegance.

Monday morning we head west on the Blue Ridge Parkway on our way to the legendary, “Tail of the Dragon” in Deal’s Gap Tennessee and overnight in Knoxville.

We will depart Tuesday morning and be home in the early afternoon to regale our friends and family with tales of how we slayed (or were slain) by the Dragon and of all the wonderful cars and adventures we had seen.

If you are interested, contact Gerhard Hillmann or Mike Stoner for more information.
