Pick-Yer-Tour Weekend is sold out/Registration is closed

Pick-Yer-Tour Weekend is sold out to capacity!  As a result, we will need to turn away any vehicles that show up at the event unconfirmed

The Hill Country and Maverick Regions’ Boards of Directors are cordially extending an invite to our Members to participate in the first-ever Pick-Yer-Tour-Weekend! 

This Event will start on Friday evening, March 17 and end on Sunday morning March 19, 2023. It will be centered in a quaint little Hill Country town named Fredericksburg.

Pick-Yer-Tour!

There will be four Drive Events to choose from:

• On-Road Technical
  • • Focused on Porsche “Sports” cars (911, Boxster, Cayman, 356, Panamera) looking for a “zesty” drive with tons of curves, turns, and twisties. Not for the faint of heart. Four and a half hours of fun driving.

• On-Road Leisure
  • • Self-guided activity for those who desire to drive their Sports cars or SUVs in a more relaxing manner and enjoy the Hill Country scenery.

• Paved/Unpaved Hill Country
  • • Intended for Porsche SUVs and other vehicles having at least 8-inch ground clearance.
    • Featuring miles of public dirt roads, cattle guards, free-roaming livestock, little to no traffic, and including a crossing or two of the James River, not by bridge, but by driving through the river, which has a solid rock bottom and is generally 12 to 18 inches deep, depending on recent rainfall.

• Hidden Falls Off-Road Loop
  • • At Hidden Falls OHV Park in Marble Falls
    • For lifted and/or high-clearance Cayennes / Macans, and other modified vehicles.
    • Drivers pay vehicle entry fee at Park

 All tours will start about the same time on Saturday Morning and will run concurrently. Additional detail on each of the tours is located here => Tour Details

Please note: None of the above tours are intended to be a speed contest or competition driving event. They are for your driving enjoyment. We will be observing all laws and speed limits. None of these events will push you or your vehicle to it’s limit.

SOCIAL ACTIVITIES

In addition to some great driving experiences, we are planning several Social events, starting with a joint Club Mixer early Friday evening.
