IT'S NOT JUST THE CARS, IT'S THE PEOPLE
The 28th Annual Richmond Porsche Meet weekend, Shenandoah Region’s premier annual event, is just around the corner. Mark your calendars for September 13th & 14th. On Saturday September 13th, join us at the Richmond International Raceway for an Autocross. Separate links via e-mail have been sent for the Autocross registration. Then plan on joining your friends on Sunday, September 14th, to see some fabulous Porsches at the beautiful Dover Hall near Short Pump, VA. This is a new upscale venue for Shenandoah Region Porsche Club (SRPCA). We now have a new event co-host, our friends from the neighboring First Settlers Region (FSR). We welcome FSR!
Richmond Porsche Meet Details
Concours: A Concours on the Dover Hall property will kick off a full day of activities on Sunday. If you want to compete in the Concours, you need to register your Porsche and register for lunch. The Concours will be limited to 50 cars and all awards will be presented during lunch in the Dover Hall ballroom.
Porsche Corral: If you’re not entering the judged Concours, you’ll still want to polish up your Porsche and plan to park in the Corral and participate in the People’s Choice award. Corral attendees must register on this site and register for lunch. There is no cost to register for the Corral. The People Choice award will be presented during lunch in the Dover Hall ballroom.
Whether your focus is the vintage cars or to feast your eyes on the latest models–they will all be there!
Lunch: A lunch will be available but must be ordered during registration on this site and will be provided by the Dover Hall in the ballroom. Porsche merchandise will be raffled during the luncheon, courtesy of Euroclassics Porsche. The lunch venue limits us to 160 people.
Driving Tour: After the lunch and award presentations are concluded, a driving tour will depart from Dover Hall.
We highly encourage our new members to come out and meet fellow members who share your passion for Porsche. Remember, it’s not just about the cars, it’s about the people. Come and join us for the 28th Annual Richmond Porsche Meet!
Event Requirements
For this year’s RPM, we’ve decided to launch a new Concours judging method—Participants’ Choice. This method cuts down on time-consuming methods of judging and brings back the fun factor for all participants. According to Porsche Club of America Concours judging guidance, “…people serving as judges at a…concours should have practical experience preparing and entering cars…”. Who is better at judging a car’s preparation than someone who’s prepared their car for the same event. Each RPM Concours entrant will be provided with a ballot to select the car they feel is the best prepared in each of the Porsche model categories below. Thus, class winners will have been selected by a group of their Porsche peers, we can think of no better honor to bestow.
Concours Classes
356: All years
914: All years
924/928/944/968: All years
