Dear Drivers,
It is hard to believe it has been eight months since PVGP ’08. By now you have heard all the glowing reports about the best event on the racing calendar. You may not have heard that the VSCCA raised over $70,000 for the event, which helped the PVGP association donate a record $171,000 to its charities, Allegheny Valley School and the Autism Society of Pittsburgh. This would not have been possible without you, our drivers; the generosity of our sponsors, and of course the hard work of Molly and Barb.
The 2009 Schenley Park event is July 18-19—with little more than four months until PVGP 2009, it’s time to put us on your schedule, send in your application, and prepare your car. We have many new and exciting ideas to continue to improve your experience.This year’s featured marque is BMW, and we are putting together an active field of BMWs through the mid 1970s for a featured marque race. I have been in discussion with a number of single-marque clubs that have proposed dedicated marque races as well as west-coast racing clubs regarding their participation at Schenley Park.
Our PVGP roundel program is entering its third year and has been very successful. It’s a great way to go the extra mile for the charities and makes a very nice memento for your garage wall at season’s end. Contact Molly for more information about this unique opportunity. I look forward to seeing you once again in Pittsburgh in July, meanwhile we will work to provide you with the best experience in vintage motor racing. On behalf of the many people assisted by your participation and sponsorship, thank you!
