Rev up your engines and take a trip down memory lane at the inaugural Stahl’s Orphan Car Show! This one-of-a-kind event is a celebration of the quirkiest, coolest, and most unforgettable cars from brands that are no longer with us. Think of it as a reunion for the misfits and mavericks of the automotive world, where vintage charm meets retro flair!

Got a new driver in your household? Consider this hands-on program that equips them with the skills they need to handle common situations that come while behind the wheel. It’s put together by Tire Rack, and instructors that day will be Porsche Club DE instructors.
The primary emphasis of the Tire Rack Street Survival® is a “hands-on” driving experience in real-world situations! We use your own car to teach you about its handling limits and how you can control them. The students will become more observant of the traffic situation they find themselves in. They will learn to look far enough ahead to anticipate unwise actions of other drivers. As the students master the application of physics to drive their cars, they will make fewer unwise driving actions themselves. They will understand why they should always wear their own seatbelts, and why they should insist that their passengers wear seatbelts, too.
It’s about more than driving – it’s about LIVING!
