Fellow CFCA members, The Porsche club is sponsoring the annual challenge rally on Sunday 11/14/10 to benefit the Russell Home for Children. There will be an award to the club with the most cars registered. Even though the entry form does not state non-european cars or specify American cars as one of our members so "diplomatically" pointed out (i.e., HUTCH) -- all makes and model cars are welcomed because, as the rally master states, it is for the children and the charity. We can make a definite statement to the other central Florida car clubs if we show up in numbers. Stef and I have been in the last 3 rallies both in our Corvette and in the Porsche. Last year there was a van and several Asian vehicles as well as a few Mustangs. It is a fun event while helping OUR charity. - CFCA Chairperson: Claude Laborde cjldoty@gmail.com
