Okay, so it's actually called PDX but whatever. SCCA is running a PDX event in conjunction with the Fri / Sat regional races. The region has novices who want to attend but the region is turning them away due to not having enough instructors. IMO, that really sucks. SCCA really, really needs to grow a PDX / HPDE program in order for our club to grow. Many of us have complained that there's no real path into w2w road racing, and people need to join NASA or do go with other orgs to get started and we somehow expect them to come running back to SCCA.

 

Even if you don't have a lot of experience, remember back to how crazy things were as a novice and you really just wanted to keep the car on track, be able to drive the car home, and have fun.

 

If you can, please register for the event even if you can't race that weekend via the motorsports.reg site. If you are racing, sure seems like a no brainer (although they do currently require that instructors have an incar communicator).
