April 8, 2023: Florida Citrus Region “Heritage Tour” featuring “older” Porsches including our front engine transaxle cars. Join us!
The event is an annual affair where we get together and embark on a drive to celebrate the front engine transaxles and air-cooled Porsches. Not a gimmick rally, just a tour that starts at the Oviedo Mall and ends at Gator’s Dockside in DeLand. We will meander through some of the historical backroads of east central Florida with little tidbits and historical trivia along the way.
We will meet at the Oviedo Mall off SR 417 on Red Bug Lake Road for a 10 am driver’s meeting. (For your GPS, put in 1700 Oviedo Mall Blvd, Oviedo, FL 32765) Our route will take us northeast towards Volusia County, by a seaport, through an old country town, to the FIRST county seat of the county, through some areas that are famous (and even infamous) and finally to Gators Dockside in the south end of DeLand. We have a special parking area reserved for our cars and a section of the restaurant just for us. We will leave the mall in groups of no more than ten cars to keep everyone together, and everyone will have a sheet of instructions so no one will get lost!
You do NOT have to be a member of PCA or Florida Citrus Region to participate.

Fun Fact – Between 1976 and 1992, there were well over 300,000 924, 924S, and 944’s sold worldwide. During that same period, Porsche produced just over 200,000 911’s for the worldwide market. So to keep that ratio, we need THREE of our front engine transaxle cars in attendance for every two Heritage 911’s. Get registered!
