About this event
Join us for a very special event at Oregon Raceway Park on August 15, 2015 to take advantage of an available date. It is being named Rennbahntag (track day) to reflect the simple format and fun we will have.
The club decided to throw together a limited participation event with only 40 drivers. There will be just two run groups for plenty of track time and no instruction. "Simply come out and have some fun" is the theme of this event for our experienced solo-qualified drivers.
With Hooked on Driving running the event clockwise the next day on Sunday 8/16, we thought we would make the weekend even more interesting by running the course counter-clockwise for our event.
The fee for this event is $250 for everyone. Lunch included.
It is important to understand that only drivers signed off solo (Intermediate up to Advanced) are eligible to participate. All drivers will be seriously vetted before allowed into the event, so your registration will initially be changed to show "Waitlisted," before it is moved to another status and Confirmed. Expect an email from our Registrar and please respond quickly to clear any questions.
Take advantage of running clockwise with Hooked on Driving on Sunday. They will be offering instruction. You can register for that event at <https://www.hookedondriving.com/event-details/Running_at_the_Park_HPDE_ORP_Sunday_August_16th>
We do not have a formal event hotel, but there are some rooms at the Quality Inn and Suites in Goldendale, WA. To book a room call the hotel at 509-773-5881, let them know you are with Audi Club Northwest or use their link <http://www.qualityinn.com/hotel-goldendale-washington-WA178>. Another lodging option is camping. Camping is permitted at the ORP parking area for Friday and/or Saturday night provided they have a list of people beforehand. Contact Pat if you are interested in camping overnight at the track.
Please register early for this event as it is expected to sell out very fast with only 40 spots available.
