Car # 935 - 1987 Porsche 930 Turbo

My name is Peter Sygieda driving car # 935 - ’87 Porsche 911 Turbo. I am married to a beautiful and loving wife Maggie for 17 years. We have a gorgeous daughter Nicole who is 12 y/o. Recently we have adopted a little puppy and named her "Porsche".

I first joined the Porsche Club of America in 1997. My first Porsche was a 1974 914 1.8 L four cylinder two seater. My entire life I was drawn to the Porsche make and dreamed as a kidabout one day owning a Porsche - any Porsche. Well, after the 914, I wanted the classic 911, which for me always was and will be the TURBO. I purchased my 911 Turbo in 1999, and fell in love at first sight. I drove the car for about 2 years and decided that it was time to really experience the power of this 911 on track. I started participating in our local chapter of the PCA and knew that I wanted to do more.

At that point I began my work on the 911.

I gutted the inside and began transformation into a true race car. To this day it’s a work in progress but it is about 95% complete. Pol-Position Racing, was actually the creation of Jack Borys and myself, back in the 2005 season. Both Jack and I knew each other for more then 20 years and both had the passion for Porsches. I talked Jack into buying his 993 about 6 years ago, and ever since he’s shown that he has what it takes to be a true race car driver, winning numerous 1st place wins and trophies from around the country.  In 2009 I decided to begin my racing experience and over the Labor Day weekend I will start in my first PCA Club Race in GT 1S Class. I am very active in the Chicago Region Porsche Club and participate in many Drivers Ed events as well as racing and instructing for the club.

I am fortunate to work at Northstar Motorsports where I get to help fellow enthusiasts in selecting the correct safety and race equipment for their sports cars. I am also a licensed Illinois Realtor

In 2009 my first official Porsche Club race happened at Road America Road Course in Elkhart Lake, WI. I started in GT 1S class with fierce competition coming from various Porsche Cup Cars and Fab Cars. I somehow managed to win in my class.
