Cascade Sports Car Club HPDE Track Day at Portland International Raceway

High Performance Driving Education and Racecar Testing

Our track days give you the opportunity to drive on a real racetrack. Whether your car is a daily driver or a fully prepared race car, whether you’re a first time novice student wanting to become a better driver or a seasoned race driver looking for some seat time to shake down your car before a race, we’ve got you covered.

Our ICSCC-approved Driver's Training program includes classroom sessions with professional instruction in the dynamics of car control and high performance driving. You’ll learn about contact patch, weight transfer, and the physics of a car in motion that keep you in control. In between these classroom sessions, you'll put that knowledge to use with our expert staff of in-car instructors. You’ll learn at your own pace and gradually work your way up to more challenging speeds.

Our HPDE Novice and Intermediate groups also double as a "Competition Driving School" for those seeking a competition license. Please register for the appropriate group based on your prior experience -- HPDE Novice if you have never been on track before, HPDE Intermediate if you have prior track experience -- and indicate that you are seeking a competition license.

For those interested in simply honing their driving skills our Advanced HPDE group is a club day environment where the goal is to enjoy a day at the race track driving fast and safe with friends and other enthusiasts who share your same passion. Prior track experience is mandatory.  

We also offer sessions for licensed racers:

  • Test-and-Tune (TnT) - Full day or half day run groups for licensed racers to test and shake down their cars.
  • Open Wheel - For open-wheel/Sports Racers to get on-track before the race weekend starts. This is a 15-20 minute session at the end of the driver training day.
