Putnam Park is an excellent venue for High Performance Driver Education, with a flowing layout that rewards vision, smooth inputs, accurate corner placement, and consistent execution. <br><br>This session was driven at approximately eight-tenths effort. Rather than chasing lap times, I focused on refining my race lines, improving consistency, and working through the technical details that make each lap smoother and more precise. <br><br>Follow along for an in-car session with The Heritage Porsche as I work through Putnam Park and continue developing both the car and driver. <br><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/hashtag\/theheritageporscheproject\">#TheHeritagePorscheProject<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/hashtag\/heritageporsche\">#HeritagePorsche<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/hashtag\/cirpca\">#CIRPCA<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/hashtag\/springbrakehpde\">#SpringBrakeHPDE<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/hashtag\/porscheclubofamerica\">#PorscheClubOfAmerica<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/hashtag\/putnampark\">#PutnamPark<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/hashtag\/putnamparkroadcourse\">#PutnamParkRoadCourse<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/hashtag\/porsche911\">#Porsche911<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/hashtag\/porsche996\">#Porsche996<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/hashtag\/hpde\">#HPDE<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/hashtag\/trackday\">#TrackDay<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/hashtag\/racelines\">#RaceLines<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/hashtag\/drivereducation\">#DriverEducation<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/hashtag\/pcainstructor\">#PCAInstructor<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/hashtag\/motorsports\">#Motorsports<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Heritage Porsche Project and tjtryon had the pleasure of both instructing and driving at the 2026 CIRPCA Spring Brake High Performance Driver Education event, held April 17-19 at Putnam Park Sports Car Course in Greencastle, Indiana.
