Rules, Good Advice etc. (Most of mine, some of the tracks)

• All persons entering O.R.P. are required to sign a release and wear at all times the issued security wrist band. (Yes, on your wrist, either side, your choice).
• Paddock spaces on a first come basis. Your guests are welcome, however do to the size of current motor homes, it may be necessary to move nonessential vehicles from the paddock areas.
• For those that arrive after hours. O.R.P. Provides a large parking area East of the front gate.  (If you are sleeping on the ground, the gravel there is guaranteed to be as comfortable as the gravel inside the facility).
• All cars are subject to Tech inspection. Vehicles with removable tops (convertibles) must be equipped with an adequate roll bar (the broom stick test applies). 
• All cars must be equipped with seat belts and securely mounted seating for the driver and instructor if you are signing up for the school. A 2000 or newer Snell rated helmet and eye protection is required. All manor of personal safety gear is encouraged.
• Passengers, other than STAR Certified Instructors, are not allowed.
• Cars will run with the door windows all the way up or all the way down. If running with the windows up, the car must be equipped with functioning turn signals to be used to signal passing (in lieu of point-by).
• 92 octane unleaded non-ethanol fuel will be available on site from the track. It is $5.50 / gal. You may bring your own.
• All spills must be reported immediately to the track staff to avoid damage to the pavement.
• Bring what you need. Grass Valley is a town of less than 200 people in a county of less than 1,800 people. (The nearest approximation of a city is The Dalles 50, miles away).
• Food vendors may be on site or you can order a box lunch in advance and have it delivered to the track at noon for around $10.00.
• There is no running water at the track.
• Electrical hook-ups are not available (bring a generator if you need power).
• O.R.P. is typically sunny, dry and cold this time of year. The track is at 2,500 feet. The wind can be very brisk be sure to plan extra ways to tie down canopies and awnings.
• O.R.P. is dog friendly. Pick up after them and keep them on a leash when the track is hot.
• O.R.P. uses 100.1 FM to broadcast track announcements. (Bring your boom-box).
• Lodging is available (see ORP website, www.oregonraceway.com), it will be listed under the "Our Partners" tab).
