So on www.portlandraceway.com, on August 3, 4, and 5, they say that the Ferrari Challenge series is going to be a PIR. I want to go to this, but I will probably only want to go one day. Does anyone know where there is a more specific schedule where they say what will be going on each day. I want to go to the day that has the most interesting stuff. I assume, it will be Sunday, but last year, the ALMS race was on Saturday, instead of Sunday, and I almost missed it. If anyone knows anything, that would be great.

Thanks

I forgot to mention this before. Cars will be in the North (Pro Pits) Paddock due to Drags operating Friday and Saturday nights. Hope this helps!

thanks alot

carrnut21

so saturday and sunday look to be the same. would there be any reason to go to one then the other. I guess it is likely that there will be more running cars on saturday then sunday maybe? is the FNA track time and clinic time just track time for people with Ferraris to drive the track? is this when you will see all sorts of different ferraris driving the track? thanks again

Sunday will have all the Ferrari cars that are doing the Oregon Rally. They'll leave at the end of the day.

Did anyone here make it out to PIR yesterday? I was there for a couple of hours. The crowd was amazingly small.

They let you walk around the pits. It's worth the trip, in my opinion.

It was pretty funny to see the guy who drove an M car from my HPDE class. I kept on passing him that day. He tried not to make eye contact yesterday!!
