Track Review: Oregon Raceway Park

FrenchBoy · 11-07-2011, 05:58 PM

I wrote a little track review of Oregon Raceway Park on my friend, and fellow bimmerpost member, brave1heart's performance blog onehotlap.com.

Thought you guys might enjoy that. I will write about another "soon to open" track in the NW soon.

Thanks for the review Nicolas. Since it is like 4-5hours away, I assume you go there a night before. Can you give some info regarding accommodations around the track?

Great reviews and driving Nicolas. Can't wait to go back as it was so much fun!

Yes, we usually go down for 2-day events. Arrive the night before the first day, and leave mid-afternoon the second day. They are a number of cheap motels and a few nice B&B close by.
Best options are on the ORP lodging section http://oregonraceway.com/our-partner...ravel/lodging/

Hope this helps

Not bad if you can get home at the end of the second track day.

I'd love to see a turn-by-turn write-up on how to drive the track. Does anyone have links to those?
