About this event
INWR FALL DRIVERS SKILLS
The inland Northwest Region Porsche Club of America will conduct a Driver’s Education track event at Qlispé Raceway Park on Saturday, October 5, 2025.
Driver Skills is a one-day course in the fundamentals of driving your vehicle, at safe limits on streets and highways. You’ll get seat time on a closed course (Qlispé Raceway Park), perfecting your technique with exercises designed to focus on essential high performance driving skills: looking ahead, weight transfer, smooth inputs, threshold braking, and more. Coaching with trained instructors ensures that Driver Skills has something to offer drivers at any experience level. You’ll be better prepared to handle yourself in emergency situations. All Porsche models are welcome, especially SUV’s.
The skills exercises do not involve timing or competition. Instead, you work 1:1 with our instructors at a pace appropriate for your experience and comfort level. The exercises are designed to improve your ability to look ahead, place the car precisely, control weight transfer and brake effectively. At the end of the primary sessions, students can apply all the lessons of the day on a fun handling course.
All vehicles are welcome to attend, except for full-size (1/2 ton or larger) pickups and SUV’s.
For additional information, visit the Driver Skills area of the INWR website. We’re also looking for a few volunteers to help with flagging, setup, etc.the day before and the day of the event.
Please email competition@inwrpca.org if you’d like to help.
