Newsletter 37 Porsche Club Puebla Mexico - Morelia Drive + Track Day
The Puebla Region of the Porsche Club Mexico has established itself as the fastest region in Latinamerica, now their goal is to bring the best events. The Mexico - Morelia + Track Day event proves to be one of the most complete events in its kind with over 500 miles of grueling Mexican roads and a competitive Track Day.

Under the command of Frissen Gutierrez and Fernando Bayo the event carried an impeccable organization, plenty of fun for participants and a great experience for everyone involved.

Fernando Bayo was in charge of the tremendous route that took over 36 participants from Mexico to Morelia through the most grueling and fun roads. With help from our friends in Morelia, Enrique and Pico things went smoothly throughout the route.

In Morelia, local events carried luxury and fun and the Track Day was full of action...
