Whew, I am registered for PCA Porsche Parade. It is just unacceptable that they have a site that crashes and can't handle the multiple log in attempts. If the Stat of Oklahoma with hundreds of thousands of people hitting the portal for Covid shots can cope with no issue PCA should have a site that can handle 500 to 700 people max at initial sign up.

Ah well, it is better than the old days when the site would bog down so much it took an hour to get three pages to load.

Of course in the olden days of 1996 when I was in charge of registration it was all analog. Everyone had to mail in the paper form to PCA national and then they deposited the money and sent me the analog pages to enter on my 386 or maybe 486 and I had to enter them into a custom database. I then ran reports and put them on my BBS and the national officers logged in and downloaded the reports at 28.8 baud.
