COLUMBIA, Md. (March 21, 2017) – The PCA Club Racing Porsche Cayman GT4 Clubsport Trophy East series announced that Porsche Design will once again serve as the Official Timing Partner of the semi-professional racing series.
Porsche Design, a name synonymous with iconic design and performance-oriented sportswear, accessories, and electronics, will present the winners of the series championships with exclusive Porsche Design timepieces for the second consecutive season.
The timepieces will be presented to the Championship class and Masters class winners at the end-of-the-year celebration in October in Daytona Beach, Florida, following the season finale. The watches will be customized with the engraved GT4 Clubsport logo.
In addition to its iconic timepiece collections, Porsche Design commissions limited watch models through the Custom-Made Timepiece Program, which includes successful examples such as the “Rennsport Reunion V Limited Edition”, “ANDIAL Limited Edition, and “911 GTS Club Coupe – 60 Years of Porsche Club of America Limited Edition.” All timepieces are engineered and designed by Studio F. A. Porsche in Austria and crafted by Porsche Design Timepieces AG in Switzerland.
This partnership also will focus on branding, with the Porsche Design logo carried prominently on each Porsche Cayman GT4 Clubsport car throughout the entire 2017 season.
“The support of Porsche Design for the PCA Club Racing Porsche Cayman GT4 Clubsport Trophy East series portrays their commitment to PCA Club Racing,” said Vicki Earnshaw, PCA Club Racing chair. “We’re excited to kick off our second season this month and Porsche Design’s sponsorship continues to help us grow our strong program”.
