They run an intermediate group, advanced group, and race car group (full open test). The cost is $225.00 and interested people can call Mark Viskov at 503-641-7693. Don't worry if you aren't a club member. You will be welcomed with open arms, get lots of track time and leave with a smile on your face.
Want to go racing but don't have the budget for a racecar? Get close to the action by being a volunteer! We provide on-the-job training in all specialties: Flagging, Emergency, Pre-Grid, Registration, Timing, Tech and several others.
If flagging isn't your bag, there are plenty of "inside jobs" too. Contact the Oregon Region Office, Cascades Sports Car Club or the Oregon Motorcycle . Come on out and join the fun. Good times, good people, exciting racing!
