Porsche Camp4 Canada

I was watching the Porsche Channel the other day.Porsche Camp4 CanadaAn introductory video of the "Porsche Camp4 Canada" was uploaded. Porsche Camp4 Canada."The program is "an exciting experience like you have never experienced before, driving a Porsche on a special ice and snow course and learning proper driving and vehicle control techniques from an instructor.It is said that.

The Porsche Japan website only introduces the "Porsche Track Experience" held in Japan, but the Porsche Canada website introduces the details of the "Porsche Camp4 Canada" in detail, and applications can be made here.

On Porsche Canada's website

I went to the website and found the following at the beginning of the site.（I'm not a good English speaker, so I only understand the nuances.)

At the Polshair Ice Experience, learn the art of dominating and driving on the road in any weather. Just because it's winter doesn't mean you should be sitting in front of the fireplace sipping hot cocoa! On the contrary, it's winter and you're about to learn a whole new and exciting driving experience on the ice and snow!
Throughout the several days, professional instructors will teach you driving techniques on a special ice and snow course. It's an experience you've never had. We at Porsche want all Porsche drivers to learn winter weather driving skills so they can drive with confidence in the winter!

I guess it's like.(Definitely not this high-strung kind of writing...)

Anyway, it looks like a fun program with a special course made of snow and ice that offers a special experience. So I decided to watch youtube again carefully.

Watch the video

First, a classroom lecture.Correct seat position, Effects of laws of physics on vehicle, Correct steering positionThey are going to learn about the The correct seat position, the physical laws that the vehicle exerts? and the correct steering position. And this is what the actual course looks like.

It's amazing... it's a big nature, a special course that can only be made in Canada. It's ridiculously big and spacious. The 911s are neatly lined up near the entrance of the course.

This program uses the911CarreraS and 911Carrera4SI hear that. If I were to participate, I somehow feel more comfortable with a 4S four-wheel drive.... And in the video, you can see the participants who came by Porsche bus.

This guy was so excited, I couldn't help but smile just by looking at him. After getting off the bus, the participants high-fived the instructor in turn. It's like the scene at the Apple Store when the iPhone went on sale.

Once again, the images of the 911s arranged in an orderly fashion. In this way, it is overwhelming. And beautiful, beautiful.

Finally, the program begins. In this program, you willBraking on ice, handling, correct steering, correct understeer and oversteer(Steering characteristics in which the car cuts inward at increasing speeds is called oversteering, while bulging outward is called understeering.), ,Changing lanes with winter tires, careful acceleration on winding roads, driving with winter tires with 1.5 mm grooves, slalometc.

Wow, this looks like a lot of sliding, but I wonder if this is a program to experience the PSM (Porsche Stability Management System). It looks like a bit of an attraction.

I thought, "This is so scary! I thought, "It's so scary!" but the participants' expressions were surprisingly joyful.

From the sky, it would have been amazing to be driving with all this snow and smoke.

Looks like a lot of fun (laughs).

I wonder if this is the first time I've experienced the amazing performance of a Porsche, and I'm so excited that I can't help but smile. Still, it's amazing. To be able to control a vehicle like this without crashing or causing an accident...once again, Porsche's performance is amazing.

The video is very beautiful, as if the majority of the video was shot by drone.

Some participants were just smiling, while others still had this expression on their faces.

Wow!!! (*0*)

After that, the video shows the participants practicing in turn, and the distance between the cars is quite close.

The participants' expressions were serious. Their desperation was palpable.

One wrong move and you've got a big accident. And slalom in a place like this.

Amazing...I wouldn't be confident that I could slalom properly on a normal surface. The instructor's instruction was enthusiastic. Participants listen intently.

Some of the participants were women, three beautiful women. They are really beautiful women, aren't they?

As the program progresses, participants begin to relax.

Yeah~!!!!

Of course we would take a video, we would definitely take a video (laughs), and every night we would have dinner with the participants.

It's a very rich time! I wonder what kind of work these participants are doing.

The hotel where they will stay looks like this.

So, what did the participants think?(I'm not a translator, so I'm just translating from the mood).

Definitely the best day of my life so far!"and

It's great! I'm already having so much fun!"and

It's so wonderful and fun and yes, yes, yes, it's just amazing!"and

It's been really great, I've learned a lot."And...everyone seems to be very satisfied with the experience. The instructor also seems to be kind and attentive.

Finally, a commemorative photo of everyone. Behind them is a "PORSCHE" object made of ice.

And finally, "Did you guys have fun?"　Yeah~!!!!" The video ended with something like that.

How much does it cost?

The dates for next year's 2019 Porsche Camp4 Canada are the end of January to early February. I wondered how much it would cost for such an exciting program, so I looked into it...

$5,495 CAD (plus taxes)

...I didn't know instantly, it was 85,30 per dollar (CAD) (as of 8/25/2018).

468,720 Japanese yen.

WOW!!! (((HUGS))) but I'd probably do that much...

It looks more fun than the "Porsche Track Experience" in Japan, with more of an attraction element. I think it would be fun and educational if I could participate...It would be really dangerous if you don't have the level of English understanding that you can hear over the walkie-talkie...I guess "being able to converse in English" would be a prerequisite to participate in this.

My husband seems to be learning English better than before these days, so I hope he will join us in a few years ((I'd like to know what it's like, since I'm fine staying in Japan. w)So, here is the video. So, here is the video, which is only 3 minutes long, but it is a short video that really shows the charm of Porsche, so I hope you will enjoy it too.(And if anyone has attended, please let me know what you thought lol)
