Portland, Oregon (March 1, 2018)
Registration is now open for the 2018 Oregon Trail Rally (OTR) at the early entry price. The three day event, held April 20-22, is the official start of the 2018 American Rally Association National Championship Series.
Utilizing similar roads from the past several years, OTR will cover up to 140 stage miles in the scenic Columbia River Gorge. Friday night will again see the fan favorite nighttime super special stages at Portland International Raceway. 2018 sees a flip in the weekend schedule, with the stages near Goldendale, Washington now running on Saturday, Day 2 of ORT. The final day of the rally will be held in the rolling hills surrounding Dufur, Oregon, home of the famous Boyd Jump.
Early Entry pricing for the event will be in effect for the next two weeks, until March 16. As always, discounts and classes are available to first time competitors. And of course, all fees will be waived for any team entering a homologated Group B car or for any driver who's name is John Buffum.
