Default Pacific NorthWest Track Events?

Should be getting the 7.2 GT3 next week. Eager to get back into track events. I have only driven in Pacific Raceways in Kent besides locally at Mission. Would be up for a weekend drive down to Oregon etc.

Anyone know of any upcoming Porsche Club events in Zone 6 (PNWR or OR) or other well run track days?

Definitely plan on going to Oregon Raceway. If you do any events at Portland Raceway, try to do an Adrenaline test day or Alfa Club day. The PCA track days aren't much fun IMO if you are much of a driver. Motorsportsreg has pretty much all events listed.

There is a truck load of us from Edmonton heading to ORP for a 3 day event in May 7-9. I'll look up the contact information and PM you.

Oregon Raceway is so much better than Pacific Raceways , I need to get out there again.

Maryhill Loops hill climb / time trial is a Northwest classic I'd like to do. There's no Porsche-specific event that I know of but you can usually get yourself attached to some club that's running it.

In the near future signed up for the April 21 at PR and planning the May 14/15 PCA at ORP.

And if PolarPorsche wants to share the info on the 7-9th I might be interested in that that as well.

Too bad that you won't be at PR for the July day. I believe it is the one that we will open for open lapping after our regular track day. From 4pm-9pm. That will be a blast!

If anyone is interested, I have a bunch of guys going down to Oregon Raceway Park on Mon. May 23rd and we have spaces available. Most of us have not driven there, but we do have a few experienced guys who are familiar with ORP.
E-mail me if anyone would like to attend.
