2026 Jerry Wolf Spring Classic
Event Information
Hosted by Ohio Valley Region PCA
Location Mid Ohio Sports Car Course
Event Dates: 05/29/26 - 05/31/26
The Jerry Wolf Spring Classic has once again reminded us why this event is such a cornerstone of the Ohio Valley Region PCA calendar. Registration numbers are already strong, volunteer support continues to grow, and the familiar family atmosphere we’ve built over the years is alive and well.
From the moment the track goes hot at Mid-Ohio to the Friday night gathering at our host hotel, the Quality Inn in Bellville, this weekend is about more than driving. The banquet room fills quickly, conversations spill into the lobby, and lawn chairs inevitably appear in the parking lot as old friends reconnect and new ones are welcomed in. We are deeply grateful for the enthusiasm and commitment our members bring to this event year after year.
This year, we will also take time to remember and honor our friend and longtime instructor, Van Nianouris, whose recent passing has left a lasting impact on our community. He will be missed, and his contributions will not be forgotten as we gather at Mid-Ohio.
If you haven’t already begun preparing your car and gear for the season, now is the time. To help everyone get up to speed, OVR PCA will host our Annual Driver’s Seminar on February 28 at the Hamilton County Coroner’s Office in Cincinnati. Topics will include safety gear updates, brakes, tires, suspension, and even SIM racing. Be sure to register for the seminar while signing up for the Spring Classic.

Details
The dates are May 30th through June 1st. The decision has been made to have the entire paddock available throughout the weekend, including camping. For those of you who have asked for this feature, it will be available this June. This means that beginning Thursday evening at 5 p.m. you will have around the clock access to the paddock. There is no longer a need to rush to get to the track and unload Thursday evening before the gates close at 7 p.m.
There will be a $20 gate fee for those of you bringing campers or motor homes and you will need to contact Dave at Mid-Ohio prior to the event to arrange hookups. His email is: Dschwall@midohio.com .

Additional Details
We have enjoyed a great relationship with the owners of Mid-Ohio and continue to do so. This relationship has helped keep our track rental fee’s at a reasonable level with no increase in our rates for 2024. For 2025 the owners have decided to bring all clubs to the same level with universal pricing. What this means for us is a very large increase in the cost of the track rental for 2025. It was a difficult decision for us but there was no way around it, the increase will be reflected in the registration fees for the event. We truly look forward to having you join us for both the Jerry Wolf Spring Classic and Autumn Thunder.

944 Fest
Welcome to the annual 944Fest! Since its inception in 2001, this event has blossomed into the largest gathering of 944s in the world, proudly celebrating 23 years and counting.
Primarily held at Nelson Ledges, with occasional visits to VIR and Mid-Ohio, 944Fest has evolved from a modest HPDE session run by NORPCA to a full weekend event. As our community grew, we took on the entire weekend, continuing to operate under PCA guidelines with our instructors and HPDE chair sourced from local PCA regions like NOR and EBR.
While our event centers on the Porsche 944 and its siblings (924/924S/968/928), we welcome all cars, including non-Porsches. The HPDE sessions are scheduled as follows:
Friday 8/30: 944 Day (944/924/924S/968/928)
Saturday 8/31: All Cars
Sunday 9/1: All Cars
We're also seeking instructors for the weekend at a rate of $65. If you have PCA instructor experience or credentials, we encourage you to join us.

Feel free to reach out to Travis at 954-445-6437 for more information or with any questions.
We hope to see you there for a fun and relaxed weekend!
