Don't forget to come out to the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix - our regional Porsche Club's biggest event each year. There are hundreds of p-car enthusiasts that gather on the lawn at Schenley Park to enjoy our cars and the races.
The PVGP takes place in scenic Schenley Park in the heart of Pittsburgh. This is one of 2 vintage races that occur on public streets in the world, the other being Monaco. It is also a significant charity fundraiser.

It will also include a nice impromptu gathering of Porsches of all varieties. All local and distant Porsches welcome. Start at 5 pm to ?
