Mark your calendar for our Mammoth Lakes, Yosemite and Tonopah LVR/PCA member tour. This will be a three-night event that promises to be exciting, with inspiring roads and beautiful scenery. We will travel from Las Vegas to Mammoth Lakes, CA, where we will spend 2 nights, giving everyone time to visit Yosemite National Park and the surrounding Mammoth Lakes area.

Hi, my name is Harris Schwartz, and I am a new member of the LV Porsche Club, but certainly not new to Porsche. I think I am on my 4th Porsche now, and currently driving a special “edition” spec car – 2023 911 Carrera S with some special equipment you would never find on any non-GT car. My car operates and drives and performs as a GT car. It is my all time favorite. Of course, if you asked my husband (Dat), he loves it too, but he loves his GT2 RS even better. I fell in love with Porsche once my husband bought his original.

My first ever car was a 1974 Plymouth Duster in Fire Engine Red. It was a great, solid car for that time. The only other vehicle that I really enjoyed was a Toyota Tundra in Forest Green color. 

I joined PCA in 2022 officially. I have been enjoying the [...]

Wow! What a Porsche day in Southern Utah!  We had a great showing for the Show and Shine and Porsche Car Show…so many attendees…several hundred if you count all the shoppers at the Tuacahn Market on Saturday, April 22nd. Such great exposure for PCA and Gaudin Porsche of Las Vegas.

I can’t say enough about the whole Gaudin team that came to Tuacahn! Wow! so much fun, so hard working and so professional. They impressed everyone. They answered so many owner questions…and Steve has convinced me I NEED an air-cooled! Also, the prizes were so generous and so appreciated by all of our winners!

There were so many great stories today…but here is just one. A couple, Ken and Betty Hollman, moved to St. George from Reno where they had been active with the Sierra Nevada PCA region for years…both serving as President. They sold their Porsches prior to moving [...]

Our Las Vegas Region club members were out in force for the Porsche Sprint races that were held at Spring Mountain Motorsports Raceway on April 21-23rd. We had great weather as we cheered for Premier 1 Race Team with club member Michael Londo driving the #111 in the Porsche GT3 991 class. The team and driver were well prepared for this first outing as they continue to compete in the Yokohama Sprint Challenge USA West series this year. A big shout-out to Kent Moore, Sam Weber, Amy Roberts-Moore and the rest of the team for their hospitality during the event!
