PORSCHE ANNOUNCES SECOND PORSCHE RENNSPORT REUNION; DAYTONA
INTERNATIONAL SPEEDWAY CHOSEN FOR ITS RICH PORSCHE HISTORY

ATLANTA, GA - Aug. 12, 2003 - Keeping a promise to America's Porsche
owners and racing fans made in 2001, Porsche Cars North America, in
conjunction with Brian Redman and his Intercontinental Events, Inc.,
today announced Porsche Rennsport Reunion II, to be held April 23-25,
2004, at historic Daytona International Speedway in Florida.

After sports car and motorsports enthusiasts packed Lime Rock
Park in Connecticut to see more than 50 years of history-making Porsche
racecars and drivers in 2001, Porsche promised to hold a second event in
three years time. The Company will fulfill that promise and chose "The
World Center of Racing" because of Porsche's rich history at that track.

Porsche's first win in the Rolex 24 at Daytona in 1968 was not only an
important part of Porsche's U.S. racing heritage, but was significant
for auto racing worldwide as it marked the first Porsche overall victory
in an international 24 hour sports car endurance race. Porsche-powered
cars have gone on to score a record 20 total overall victories in the
Daytona 24 Hour race including this year's win by the Racers Group
Porsche 911GT3 RS.

"Porsche and Daytona International Speedway enjoy reputations steeped in
tradition," said Jim France, Chief Executive Officer of International
Speedway Corporation, the parent company of Daytona International
Speedway and 11 other major motorsports facilities. "With that, it's
only natural that the two would come together for such an exciting event
as the Porsche Rennsport Reunion II. We're thrilled to have Porsche and
its many owners and fans visit "The World Center of Racing."

Porsche Rennsport Reunion II will be open to the public and will bring
together an unprecedented gathering of significant Porsche vintage
racecars owned by private collectors, Porsche Club racers, former
Porsche factory drivers and a selection of historic cars from the
Porsche Museum in Stuttgart, Germany. It will feature a three-day
program of on-track competition plus a concours d'elegance, which will
be open to the event's participants by invitation. In addition, special
activities are planned commemorating the 50th Anniversary of the Porsche
356 and Porsche 550 Spyder, and the 40th Anniversary of the Porsche 911.


Additional details of the Porsche Rennsport Reunion will be
published on Porsche's web site (www.porsche.com), Brian Redman's
Intercontinental Events web site (www.gorace.com), and Daytona
International Speedway's web site
(http://www.daytonainternationalspeedway.com/), as they become
available. Ticket information is available by contacting Daytona
International Speedway at (386) 253-RACE.

Cool,

I was at the one at Lime Rock, couldnt believe the number of historical cars. The races were awesome, Paul Newman t-boning another car while driving a Brumos 914

If your near Daytona you should not miss this event

well - they're just a bit late on that one - the 356 debuted in 1949 with the aluminum-bodied Gmund Roadsters and several hundred coupes delivered in 1950. this is the 50th anniversary of -my- 356, so of course i'm pretty happy about that ...

seriously - this looks to be a fantastic event and i'm putting it on my calendar. i'd love to make it down for the 24 Hrs (been way too long since my last time) but that's more iffy. late April could happen tho...

If I go, I'm driving the teener!

OK than, 914Club will meet at the enternce to the tunnel at 8:00am.

I'll be there, Karl and Doug and Phil in Jax.

Where your hats!!!


Paul

OOOOOOOOOOHHHH HALLELUJAH!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOOO HOOOOOO!!!!!!

yeah .... i think i can make this one!!!!

man, this deserves a dancing banana!!


doug

Paul

I'm going. The teener should be done by then! Maybe I can take her for a spin on the high banks... that would be soooo cool!

Karl

mine won't be (started, even...) but the 911 should be as close to being in RS (homage) trim as it's gonna be ...

high banks - cool for sure ...

The event at LRP was a blast. If I could get a sponsor I would tow my race car to FL for this one.

WAAAAAAYDAMINIT ...

when's the Hershey Swap Meet next year !? (it was the last weekend in April this year ...)

i have an email in to the CPR guy who should know ...

This is good. Looks like an cool event. Something to look forward to.

Mike

just got a reply from the CPR Swap Meet Chair --

The 2004 Central PA Region Hershey Swap Meet WILL be April 24.

those of us in the NorthEast have some decisions to make for next Spring ...

basturds. better wear those 914 name tags with your screen names. i just figured out who i sat next to at jamies the other day.

kevin

Event date conflicts. For the past few years the Brumos Swap Meet in Jacksonville has been held on the same weekend as the ALMS Petit Lemans in Atlanta. I'll never make it to the swap meet if this continues!
