Greetings esteemed members of the ARPCA,

It seems Winter weather has finally arrived and decided to park itself for a while. The days are growing shorter, the nights are getting longer, and the temperatures have dropped faster than the speed of someone spying a state trooper parked behind a bridge abutment. And of course, out comes our old friend: road salt. Nothing says Winter is here like tucking our cars away before they turn into Bavarian pretzels.

It’s no coincidence that these darkest, coldest days of the year are filled with holidays and traditions that revolve around time with friends and family… and your extended ARPCA family, too. May your season be filled with joy, good company, and minimal skids—unless you’re practicing your drifting skills.

If you’re just starting your holiday shopping (no judgment—we’ve all been stuck in neutral before), don’t forget our new ARPCA merchandise store for all your branded gear wants and needs. Make sure to take a lap through the Mart: we’ve got plenty of goodies for the Porsche lover on your list—everything from head protection to a fresh set of wheels… some even attached to entire cars. Talk about a big red bow moment.

Warmest regards,

Shawn Cressler – Web Support. Sharon Lunney – Newsletter Editor.
