Press Kit
Performance Drivers Club (PDC) is a non-profit association that promotes and facilitates recreational motor sports through high-performance driver education (HPDE). PDC is based in Vancouver, BC and provides members with the opportunity to drive their cars at racetracks across the Pacific Northwest.
PDC’s HPDE program is designed to provide a safe, structured environment for members to learn car control and driving techniques. For an event entry fee of less than a speeding ticket, members experience 100 minutes of adrenalin pumping high performance driver training with certified instructors. It’s the most cost effective and possibly the safest approach towards high performance driving.
We are pleased to support the BC Rehab Foundation as our charity of choice. BC Rehab has been specifically chosen as 90% of their patients' injuries are as a result of auto accidents.
Media
Performance Drivers Club welcomes your involvement. As a relatively young club we are constantly exploring various opportunities to promote our events and increase membership. We believe that the best way to cover our events is as a participant and invite you to join us for a day at the track. Special arrangements can be made for Media members.

While we have your attention, we would also like to make our stance on street racing perfectly clear.
Our Position on Street Racing
Performance Drivers Club does not condone the use of public streets as a forum to test the limits of your vehicle. Young drivers are especially at risk because of their limited experience. We believe that the appropriate venue for racing or high performance driving of all types is at a track facility. There are many clubs in the lower mainland who cater to all forms of performance driving including driver education, road racing and drag racing.
PDC is against all forms of street racing on public roads and believes the events we organize provide a safe outlet to release the frustration of everyday commuting. The cost of participation is less than a speeding ticket not to mention the skills one will acquire.
Please don't take it to the streets…see us at the track!!
