I believe the race will be on course K-1 in this map:

Here's an older track map of the course:

The course is 2.3 miles long. The start/finish straight looks like the longest straight, but the backstraight is actually faster, since you're pretty much flat out from T8 to T12. Check out the turn-by-turn guide on trackpedia: http://www.trackpedia.com/wiki/Turn_by_turn_guide_to_the_Reno-Fernley_Raceway_track

And I've got a few in-car videos of the track up on YouTube. Here's a demo lap of the race course circa 2005:

Here are some newer laps, but not of the exact course the race will be held on:

I am from Portland, I have a group of friends and customers I am trying to talk into this event. I have met Lee Mitchell here several times and he has always been a great spokesman for your program there.

Thanks for the other information.

Joe, send me your email and I will send info on motels, tentative schedule, car classes and run groups. I will be sending the sanction request in to Topeka today so if all goes well we should be able to accept entries and do some advertising soon.
