About this event
The Shelby American Automobile Club Northwest is hosting another open track event at Portland International Raceway (PIR) on Thursday, Sepember 19th, 2024. All makes are welcome. Our intention is to have a fun and exciting track day which allows you to drive your car on the world famous "PIR". If you have been itching to try out your performance car on a closed track or you have been doing it for 50 years we have the event for you. We will limit run groups to 20 cars each for four run groups: Novice, Intermediate, Advanced and Vintage. We expect to have 5 sessions for each run group. First time open trackers sign up and see what you have been missing. There will be plenty of help with instructors for new or new to PIR drivers. Instructors will be allowed inside the cars.
Vintage Group is back. The "Vintage Group" includes all makes from 1978 and earlier. The same tech requirements holds for the Vintage Group.
We expect to have an all day track photographer. More on this as we approach the date.
Passengers will be allowed in all run groups except Novice. Only instructors are allowed as passengers in Novice. See instructions for details.
Cost is $295 per driver.
