Get Sideways With Porsche Ice Experience

Porsche Canada has announced dates and details for its ninth annual winter driving program, which runs January 30 through February 19, 2019 and bears a new name: Porsche Ice Experience.

The event formerly known as Porsche Camp4 begins with a trio of four-day, novice-level Ice Intro waves running January 30 to February 2 and February 1-4 and 4-7.

That will be followed by the more advanced, five-day Ice Experience and Ice Force programs, which run February 8-12 and 15-19, respectively. All three levels put drivers behind the wheel of the 911 sports car with a professional driver riding shotgun and providing instruction.

As before, Porsche is running its winter driving program at the Mecaglisse race facility outside of Montreal. The Porsche Ice Experience is not a cheap proposition, priced at $5,495 for Ice Intro, $6,795 for Ice Experience and $7,995 for Ice Force. That cost includes food, accommodations at the nearby Esterel Suites and Spa and transportation between the hotel and venue each day.
