Who Reigns Supreme as HCR’s 2025 PORSCHE TRIVIA KING ??? 

For those of you who missed it, there was no disappointment at yesterday’s 2025 PORSCHE TRIVIA GAME. We warned 2024 TRIVIA KING EDWARD DOAN that they were coming for him, but he didn’t back down and secured a 2nd win to wear the Crown for yet another year. Congratulations, EDWARD, and to all the other players who made this event a fun, friendly rivalry filled with plenty of laughs and everything Porsche!

Thank you to HCR’s Advertiser & Event Sponsor, Member, Arsh Khaira | Modernaire Group At Compass.  We appreciate you!!

MAY 24    SATURDAY      2025 SPRING AUTOCROSS 

DON’T MISS OUT ON THIS OPPORTUNITY!!!  SLOTS ARE  STILL AVAILABLE

7:30 am – 4:00 pm CT

Travis County Expo Center

7311 Decker Lane,  Austin  TX  7872

For a repeat performance, we have secured the Travis County Expo Center. HCR’s Winter Autocross confirmed that the designated parking lot is in good shape and is perfect for running many laps through, around, and bypassing the cones (you know who you are)! It features a series of lanes with parking spaces, but no curbs, so wide sweeping turns are out; however, all of your favorite features—slaloms, different radius turns, and a few straightaways—should make this a fun and exciting event. We love having experienced and novice Autocrossers join us. We will have our usual group of instructors, a novice walk, loaner helmets, coffee and donuts, and more. The price remains just $45 for PCA members and $55 for all others.

Please contact Autocross Event Coordinator Alfred Freudenberger with any questions on HCR’s Discord or at [email protected]. Thank you, Alfred!
