As an incentive to encourage autocross enthusiasts across the state to participate in their club yearly or series championship,
ACCO created the Oregon Shootout Invitational. Each Class Champion and 1st runner-up from the five clubs are invited in October to compete for yearly bragging rights.

Jerry Jenkins - 2006 Top Dawg

The event is held over two full days of handicap racing (PAX).
PAX is a handicapping method to make every car equal if driven to it potential.

Over two days drivers compete over four courses,
each designed by a different club Competition Director or course designer.

This gives every driver the chance to drive at least one course design they have been familiar with over the season and three new styles.

Their times of the four courses are combined and then multiplied by the PAX based upon the cars category and class.
The driver with the lowest overall PAX time gains bragging rights as the overall driver in Oregon

2005 Autocross Family

Who competes in the OSI?
Every type of skilled driver from the weekend warrior to the National competitor.
The 4rd annual OSI saw 74 drivers from all over Oregon compete. 2007 OSI promises to be an even larger event as every driver had loads of fun and promised to talk everyone into qualifying for an invitation.

We added Category Dawgs to recognize those in Stock (S, STS), Street Prepared (SP, ST2, STX/U), Prepared (P, OSPO/U, SM) and Modified (M, SM2, Karts).

So how do you qualify for an Invitation to the Shootout? Simply participate in your local clubs Championship.
How do you do that? Use the club link page to find a local one close to you and give them a call. You will find that this family is very willing to help satisfy the curiosity in you.
