Portland All-British Field Meet Schedule
Jaguar Owners Club of Oregon invites you to bring your British car and join
over 500 other owners for this unique chance to share your interest. Come on
out to Portland International Raceway, located at West Delta Park, for the
Labor Day Weekend event.
The featured marque for this year's meet is the Morgan.
Only genuine British cars will be accepted for display. However, replica cars
made in England with British components (e.g. Panther) and specialty cars with
British chassis and running gear (e.g. Arkley) are welcome, as are British
bodied cars with US engines, including conversions. The latter may not be
eligible for judging, however.
Cars may be pre-registered (call 503-292-8066 for more information) up to the
time of the cocktail party Friday night. Pre-registered cars will have space
reserved in their classes, and will be positioned from 8:00 until 10:00 Friday
morning. If you pre-register before Aug. 15 and send a photo of you car, it
will be included in the souvenir program. Please print your name and address
on the back of all photos, or they cannot be returned. You will also receive a
dash plaque, free program, and a windscreen decal. You must be pre-registered
to qualify for judging. You may register more than one vehicle, but additional
cars will not receive dash plaques or free programs. Limited edition regalia
is available only with preregistration. Cars may also be registered on
Saturday from 10:00 AM until noon, for display only.
Special arrangements have been made of offer cooked-to-order British food --
fish and chips, bangers, Cornish pasties, and pork pies.
Special motel rates will be available at the Red Lion Inn, Jantzen Beach, which
also offers 24-hour parking security (cars cannot be left on PIR property after
