    Porsches in Russia

    You don't hear much about p cars in this region of the world, unless a car gets lifted in Europe. Language barrier would make it difficult to have a regional.

    Didn't bother to translate but assuming the article says those are the only Porsches in Russia and they're all owned by Putin.

    Inspired by the success of last winter Porsche Winter Festival, Germans from Porsche decided not to stop there and an even grander scale organized summer activities Porsche Summer Festival.

    Throughout the last weekend event participants could learn in detail the history of the company, its structure of work and play interactive games, fly on a helicopter and, of course, test the legendary 911, the Cayman and Boxster circuit near Moscow Moscow Raceway. The number of visitors this year exceeded far beyond a thousand, especially since the weather is surprisingly lucky - on the eve of the promised rain forecasters had not begun.

    However, the most notorious were the lucky three dozen leading motoring journalists invited to the race track before, still working on Friday, the ceremony of official opening of Porsche Driving Center, as well as to participate in test drives and familiarity with these types of racing cars 919 Hybrid.

    By the way, the festival was officially announced that from now on every buyer of any Porsche model receives a gift certificate for a training center in the driver's skill. You can also pass on their own, and one of the four levels of training - Introduction, Precision, Performance and Master.

    If a batch of 50 or so enthusiasts paid to rent the track for a 10 day long visit, hotel, fuel and expenses - it might present itself as a cost effective trip all around.

    Anyone like Piroshki ?
