What is with the "A" suffix in the email I got confirming my registration is complete? The A is the member the B is a associate member. I get the A my wife is B with the same car number.


And my spots are reserved because I paid the event fees already, correct?
The hotel parking lot will be full and restricted to guests only. There will be LOTS of people in cars and not enough places to park. Parking is always tight and hard to get a good spot. It is fun just to walk through the parking lot and see the hundreds of Porsches.

The A is the member the B is a associate member. I get the A my wife is B with the same car number. Remember to ALWAYS have your badge with you. You need your badge to gain access to any indoor activity.

Your badge will get you into the goodie store and the Concours. If you want to participate in the Rally or Autocross you have to pay an additional fee and reserve a spot. The same for the drives. There is a fee for dang near everything.

Be prepared to wait in a lot of lines. With a couple of thousand of people trying to do the same task there is always a line.

The meals are very expensive but usually very good. There is a seminar for first time Parade attendees. You might check that out.

Overall it is a lot of fun for a week, but it is impossible to have 2,000 people in one area doing the same activities with no lines or problems.
