If you have not been before you will have a great time there.

My own best experiences there, a Boxster on the skid pan.

Taking a Cayenne over the off road course.

Oh and driving the Carerra C4S.

Macan Turbo PP, good grief what a motor.

Going off road in a Macan SD

OK, I’ll stop now!

Enjoy your session

Not unless you have requested a 911 drive in advance.

The PEC session where I had included a drive in a Macan Turbo with Air Suspension I had specifically requested prior, so I got to drive one outside the PEC and a member here also had an hour in it.

We were both waiting for our Turbo orders and wanted to try air prior to locking down.

The Cayenne off road and Carrera drives were requested prior to attendance.

The PEC were very accommodating but I think ringing and discussing plus follow up with an email to them is the way to go.

Do read up on prior PEC posts for a flavour of what to expect.

Good luck with your session.

Just remember that your free PEC day is for you to drive the model you have ordered only and for a couple of hours, plus lunch. If your very lucky you may get to drive other cars but will very much depend on how busy and booked up they are.

Do you have to use it before a certain date?
Don't fancy it in Winter so maybe next year.

I think you get 2 years to use it.
