RMR Ladies Day 2010

It’s A Tupperware Party! (really, it is)

According to the Tupperware website this is “THE DECADE OF THE PARTY”! A Tupperware Party is “a celebration of the friendships made and the fun had”. So is Ladies’ Day! Tupperware Brands is a leader in driving positive change in women's lives. RMR Ladies’ Day leads women to a positive driving experience and, perhaps, a change in the way women view their cars. So …

The annual RMR’s Ladies’ Day Drivers’ Ed Event is Saturday, July 17th at High Plains Raceway. This is LADIES’ DAY … that means there will be no men driving in your run sessions … not a whiff of testosterone, unless it’s in the pits where the guys will help with any car-related tasks. It means there will be moms, daughters, aunts, sisters, friends, co-workers, and even grandmothers driving

You don’t need experience driving on a track, you don’t need to be hesitant because there are people out there going way too fast, you just need to be ready to have fun and learn some new skills. You don’t need to be a member of the Porsche Club to drive in this event, you don’t have to drive a Porsche – you just need to be a girl (although I’m sure ‘Stephanie’, ‘Roberta, or ‘Georgia’ may show up and try to get in on the fun).

If you don’t have a Porsche just bring a car that you are comfortable driving – No convertibles or open cars without roll bars, trucks, or large SUVs. Cross-over SUV vehicles will be allowed following review and approval from the Chief Driving Instructor. We will have driving instructors for those who are new to the track and anyone else wanting instruction. I’ve been told that this is the Instructor Corps’ favorite event because the students are so attentive and take direction well. This is a low-key, fun event so bring a friend, a mom, a daughter, an aunt, a niece, or grandma!

On Wednesday, July 7th there will be what we call “Pre-Tech” at local dealers/mechanics to check out your car and make sure it will be safe on the track. This is a good time to meet others attending the event and find out more about what it’s all about. The Pre-Tech times and locations are listed below.

Registration is on-line at Register Now. You will need to set up an account, if you don’t already have one. The cost is $75 for the first driver of a car, $50 for a co-driver. This covers all the fun you can have, refreshments in the morning and after the driving is over, and your instruction. Walk-in registration will be available, but we strongly encourage pre-registering as that helps us plan run groups and ensure enough instructors are available. Our basic schedule will include:
