PCA - worth joining?

definitely worth it. As with any club or group a lot depends on the leadership of your particular chapter. We are very lucky in the carolina's region as we are only a couple of hours from 7 different regions of the PCA and can attend events with all of them which is great, because our home region, the mountain region has a leadership that seems to favor the shine and show group and not do enough actual driving events, wine tours, etc. I see a porsche as a machine to be driven and enjoyed, not kept in a garage and polished until a car show comes along.
We even have a group of retired members within our region that get together and plan drives when there are not enough driving activities to suit us in the PCA. You can definitely meet a lot of like minded porsche owners that will become friends.
