The parking lots at the Expo center have been resurfaced with chip seal, ACCO has decided that the surface is to "rough" and could cause to much wear and tear on participance tires to hold anymore events, So, the September Event had been moved to "Hoo Doo Mountain Ski Resort".
ACCO is searching for another location to hold the "Oregon Shootout Invitational".
We are open to any location that can maintain our two track format.
Any and all suggestion will be welcomed, please contact ACCO at: Clubhouse@autoxclub.org
