About this event

 

Cascade Sports Car Club
Miller-Kersting Memorial Driver Training ~~~~~~~
School or High Performance Driving Event
@ Portland Int’l Raceway
 
Bring your street or race-prepared car to our ICSCC-approved driving event. It is fundamental for those interested in racing, yet also fun education for those who want to learn more about car control on the street or just practice their skills.
 
Our Driving School includes a four-hour evening classroom session with in-depth instruc­tion on car control theory and driving techniques. The next day you will put your knowledge to work on the 2-mile road course at world famous Portland International Raceway. You'll have a full day of on-track instruction and camaraderie with fellow car/racing enthusiasts.
 
For those interested in simply honing their driving skills, our HPDE course is a full day of on-track sessions around P.I.R.  An instructor will ride along first session.  
 
OW—There is now the opportunity for Open-wheel/Sports Racers to get on-track before the race weekend starts. We have added a 15-20 min. single OW session at the end of the driver training day.

Event requirements

NOTE:  **Convertibles **

Cars with Pop-up rollbars will NOT be allowed due to insurance issues.    Convertibles MUST have prior approval before event.

All convertible roll bars must be functional (not decorative), must be 2" above the top of the drivers helmet, and pass the broomstick test.

 

Driver Training Requirements: Safety is our primary concern.  We require a helmet certified as SNELL M (nov.school only) or SA 95 or newer.  We have helmets available to rent ($10) also.

We strongly recommend 100% cotton or nomex clothing:  underwear/bra/socks, long-sleeve shirts, long pants; leather shoes and gloves (no nylon inserts).  Long pants and closed-toe shoes are required

If you have made track driving your hobby, we highly recommend that you invest in nomex driving attire.  Please do your research before buying, as "not all that glitters is gold."  We also recommend installing at least a partial roll cage in your car (but this is not a requirement for driver training days).

You will bring your own vehicle.  It may be a daily-driver, modified street car, or fully-prepped racecar.  It must be in good condition, free of leaks or safety issues, with fully-functioning seat belts (for driver and instructor), and plenty of brakes and tire tread.  Convertibles/open-cockpit cars must have approved functional roll bar(s)--see note above.  No pop-up roll bars will be allowed.

Cars will be inspected before being allowed on the track. This inspection and roll bar acceptance is not a certifica­tion of a car’s safety or its ability to withstand the stress of this driving event.  You are fully responsible for finding and remedying any safety issues prior to the event.

Per our insurance requirements, all entrants must be 18 years of age or older and show a valid drivers license at registration.
