About this event
Join ORPCA for a day of fun and learning on the track with your car and fellow motorsports enthusiasts. You can find all about our program on www.oregonpca.org select HP Driver Ed from the Quick Link menu.
For your registration fee you will enjoy around 80 minutes of track time. If you are new to HPDE or just want to learn some more, we provide instruction, both a ground school for novices as well as in car instructors to help you get the most from the day and your vehicle.
WE OFFER FOUR RUN GROUPS FOR DRIVER EDUCATION
Novice/Beginner - The driver has none to some experience at High Speed Driving on a Track and will probably need instruction
Intermediate - The driver has some DE experience, typically 5 or more DE days and is in the process of improving their fundamental skill set. May need some instruction.
Advanced - The drivers usually have several years of track experience, they are generally working on perfecting advanced driving skills and have the ability to drive off the line safely.
Instructor - These are individuals approved by ORPCA's Chief Driving instructor to teach the other participants.
We welcome all marques to our events as long as you bring a track worthy car with you.
FYI: Starting the the September Event we have eliminated the second driver in the same car discount. It did not achieve the goals we had set for it. If you have any questions about this please contact the Event Chair, Don Clinkinbeard at dechair@oregonpca.org

An ANNUAL TECHNICAL INSPECTION is REQUIRED for all participants cars at the shop of your choice.
At the first few events we noted that a few of you have chosen shops that are not really familiar with Motorsports or your specific automobile. This is your choice but I want to remind you that you are required to bring a track worthy vehicle to our events. A shop familiar with the stresses and wear experienced in track driving and with your specific automobile will do a better job of this inspection and correction of any necessary items for you.
There are many of these shops available in the Portland area. If you are not aware of these shops your respective car club should be able to point you to a shop with the experience needed.
You are responsible for any damage you cause to the facility that includes but is not limited to: oil spllis and collision and will be required to pay an estimated cleanup/repair fee when the damage occurs before you leave the track.
