Prelude

By Mike Nyden, Sonnenschein Region PCA

Background

Between our PCA Sim Racing Series are events called Prelude (between Series races). These non-points, low-pressure events are good practice and testing sessions for the main Series events and a great way to visit with friends.

What is “Prelude” and what is its purpose?

Genesis

Early during season one, the thought occurred that a friendly and low-stress event, run on the same track as the event broadcast, might be a way to enjoy racing our Porsches while encouraging interaction and friendship. While originally conceived as a competitive “get together” and practice session using that season’s setup, it became

Interlude

By Mike Nyden, Sonnenschein Region PCA

Background

Between our PCA Sim Racing Series are events called Interlude (between Series). These non-points, low-pressure events are good practice and testing sessions and a great way to visit with and meet new friends.

What is an “Interlude”?

We think that the competition and friendship that you’ve created within our league is something special, and between seasons, we just thought it would be fun to get together. Many of the tracks and cars used represents something that can be expected to be used during an upcoming Race Series.

Here is the information from the 2020 Interlude Summer Fun

The hallmark of this series, and really our entire PCA Sim Racing culture, has been in how different Zone Groups have contributed to its success. While the “Wild West Zones” (PCA Zones 6, 7, 8, 9, 11 & 14) have played host, the “Wildcats” (PCA Zone 1), “The Founders of Schnell” (PCA Zones 2 & 4), PCA Zones 3 & 12, and the “Central Zone Group” (PCA Zones 5,

The Tip Jar – Special Pro Racer Edition

Sage advice from fellow sim racer and real-life pro race car driver, Tyler Cooke!


by Dean Chapman, Northern New Jersey Region PCA

 

What do you ensure you always do before a race?

Tyler Cooke, “I listen to some pump-up music, go over setup with the engineer, and focus on what I need to do to get the best result. A lot of times I am watching the broadcast and time charts to see how the car is doing throughout the stint and when the fall off starts. Knowing that information can help with finishing the race.”

Dean’s List – Special Pro Racer Edition

by Dean Chapman, Northern New Jersey Region PCA

Congratulations! Welcome to our third and special web release!

You have found yourself on the pole position at the Dean’s List!

The Dean’s List is the place for me to ask questions of fellow PCA Sim Racing competitors, hopefully gleaning tidbits of information about their likes, dislikes, and equipment.
I’d like to thank Josh Vieira for hooking me up here.  Josh is our very own PCA member, Senior Zone Coordinator  Zone 2 and 4,  PCA Pro SIM racer, 944 real-life podium grabbing champ, and all-around super nice guy. (I think that’s worth $5! Josh?…:-)
