What the Heck is a Porscheplatz?

Ferris wheel at the 24 Hour infield. No, we didn't ride it. 

What is a Porscheplatz?

A) A Porsche Place

B) Where you sit on the front of your house in Germany and say "GET OFF MY L AWN."

C) What you eat your Porsche food on. 

D) One of the shortest known German words. 

The correct answer is A, it's just a Porsche Place. At the Rolex 24 Hour race we visited the Porscheplatz and it was just a tent with chairs and tables, and some free water and sodas. Not a big deal maybe, but in the midst of a 24 hour event with thousands of people and noise all over the place, it was a handy spot to sit for a bit. They had some big screen TVs, so we could actually see the race too! 

Walking through the tunnel to go from the grandstand to the infield. 

Porsche sponsors these at all the IMSA endurance races, although you have to be a Porsche Club member to get in. While I was kind of hoping it was a super fancy place with free steak, lobster, and champagne, just sitting down and drinking a cool beverage was fun too! Maybe they had champagne and caviar over at the Ferrari Club? We'll probably never know!
