Everyone should bring your donations of non-perishable food and/or grocery store gift cards. This is a chance to give back to our community and help others less fortunate.
The church has a large parking lot, very Porsche friendly with lots of room for the car show. Please respond with estimated number of attendees so we can have enough refreshments for all and answer the registration questions to let us know whether you will enter your car in the show.

2025-02-23 07:30 - 17:00 | Lead Foot City, Brooksville, United States
PLEASE READ FULL DESCRIPTION – New Venue and Requirements!! Lead Foot City requires their own liability waiver to be signed as well. Please visit the link below for a one-time registration for membership/waiver for any event at their venue. You can simply register with a “Tourist” membership at no cost, or they have membership options if you plan to attend multiple other events. Have a photo (file) of your DL handy that you can attach during the membership process.
https://leadfootcity.com/pages/membership-application
Good news – you can now allow guests to arrive later in the day. Guests can enter through the Spectator Parking/Gate, but they must also be at least a Tourist member and complete the waiver. Guests who do not also pre-register via this Clubregistration.net event, however, cannot be inside the autocross area with Suncoast Region PCA. There will be a separate area for general “spectators”.
We plan to accommodate up to 50-60 drivers for this venue, however, we will still prioritize registrations by: Current PCA membership validated in your Clurbreg profile, $50; Porsche cars – non PCA, BMWCCA Club Members (driving BMW), $60, and their Guests are invited to register on 02/04/25. If you are a non-PCA member and driving “Other-XS”, you may register but DO NOT make payment in advance as you will be charged the credit card fee if we have to cancel your registration/payment. We will put you on the Waitlist and will email you about a week in advance if we are able to move you from the Waitlist to “Pending” status to make the $60 payment. You will then receive an email being confirmed to the Roster.
Registration will close on 02/19/25 and cancellations must be submitted prior to that date for refund (less credit card processing fee). NO on-site Driver registrations will be allowed.
Pre-payment (current/active PCA MEMBERSHIP # MUST be listed in your Clubreg Profile to qualify for the Member rate of $50), and the PCA Event Liability Waiver is required to be e-signed before you will be confirmed on the Roster.

ALL non-driver CREW/GUEST attendees must register and e-sign the liability waiver as a “Crew/Guest” on Clubregistration.net and Lead Foot City. Please assist your guest in setting up an account with Clubregistration.net and “LFC” as described above. Otherwise, guests will need to go to the general Spectator area of the property and sign the Lead Foot City waiver or complete their membership requirements.
PCA requires eSignatures for all events. Electronically sign the Event Liability Waiver prior to the event.
Snell 2010 helmet or newer required. Limited loaner helmets available.

Water and Gatorade will be provided, but breakfast/lunch will be available to purchase at the on-site Gear Head Grille. With 50-60 drivers, we will run A, B, and C groups in a “Run, Work, Rest” format. You can head to the Grille or bring your own food for your “Rest” sessions. We always target 4 morning runs and 4 afternoon runs depending on weather and other factors. Please make plans to stay the entire day so we have enough workers for the final run group. We usually wrap up around 3:30pm.
