The Oregon Rally Group Presents:
The Rally Against Parkinson's
July 5th, 2008
Entry Fee: $30.00 gets you the rally, regularity laps around Portland International Raceway, a chance at fabulous prizes and a free barbecue dinner. Poker hands will cost extra, price is TBA at this time.
Start at 11:30am to 11:59am from one of these six
Portland/Vancouver Metro Area Subaru Dealers, you choose! Teams meet up at Portland International Raceway by noon (roughly) for registration and regularity legs start at a little after 1pm. You must start at a Subaru Dealership, please do not come directly to PIR.
This is a tour rally, no traps, no tricks and a nice scenic and fun drive. This is an excellent event for the novice team to begin with. It will be challenging enough for experienced teams to zero controls. Running concurrently with the rally will be a Poker Run. Best hands and low ball hands win prizes donated by top rally drivers, top rally teams and many local establishments.
All vehicles welcome that are street licensed with two occupants. This is an excellent event for vintage cars as a warm up for the Monte Shelton as there are no gravel roads.
The annual Car #1 auction (and other car number requests) is active right now on the
org-l yahoogroups list and on
Facebook. Both of these require membership however both are free if you go to the homepages of either one. If you do not have access to Facebook or Yahoo Groups you may e-mail a bid directly to
johnelkin@comcast.net
The Oregon Rally Group would like to thank both Ken Block and Subaru of America for matching $1000 donations! Both have also provided prizes to be awarded after the running of the rally and the poker run. There are other companies and individuals who are donating generously as well, a complete list will be posted closer to the event.
All proceeds go to
Parkinson's Resources of Oregon.
