Great news. I heard from someone in the know that it was very possible RennSport would be no more. The cost to Porsche was just too great vs. the return.

Do not miss this if at all possible.

Awesome, I've been looking at pictures of past events for too long, I think I'll actually be able to make it this time!

I've been fortunate to be able to attend the last three Rennsports, and I think Laguna Seca fits the spirit of the event better. However, there are plenty of tracks that would be fun to visit. With the participation being so great, having plenty lodging close by is also a factor.

Regardless, just be sure to not miss it!

Selfishly I'd like to see Rennsport return to the northeast. Last one here was 2001 (Lime Rock), I believe. Or maybe try Mid Ohio - that's a little more centrally located ...

imho, they need a larger facility than Lime Rock.

Watkins Glen would be nice.. a repeat of the Double 50 of 1998(?)! Plus its a large venue.

There were rumors at the last rennsport that it was going to move to a middle US track, either Circuit of the Americas or Road America.

I have no proof, this is just what I overheard eating lunch.

I live in the Daytona area so Daytona would be great. Plus I missed both Rennsports at Daytona.
The Glen would be a great venue but not enough lodging in my opinion, and so would be road America and Circuit of the Americas. However, since Porsche's US head quarters is in Atlanta with a brand new facility, I would bet on Road Atlanta.
In any case, it does not matter where in the US, I am in.
Bill.

I may be biased, but I am hoping for Laguna Seca.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) I Thought I heard the West Coast was Porsche's hottest market and Califona a big sheare of that plus Laguna Seca "almost" in the middle of California, so the descission to bringing Rensport back last time. Three hours from my house you gotta know I'd be there. I've completely enjoyed both times here and felt really fortunate, my favorite event

RA is a fast track...good for horsepower. Lot's of IMSA history too. I was a corner worker for a couple of seasons there when I was in college at Ga Tech.

That would be fantastic to see it here, though I've always wanted to visit Laguna Seca.

I second the motion for Lime Rock.

Our very first Rennsport was last year at Laguna Seca.

Honestly - I don't care where they have the one in 2018 - we'll be there - it was just THAT incredible. If you are able to make it to Rennsport in any form or fashion; you have to make it happen!

Anyone hear any more news about the next Rennsport? I am sure that with the planning involved with an event of this scale, someone has to know.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Insiders will probably know; perhaps they are sharing that info with vendors that will be participating. You might try calling Porsche NA HQ and chat with their marketing team......?

Either one makes sense. COTA is built to handle F1 type crowds and Road Atlanta handles the Mitty which has grown exponentially.
