Following another success­
ful Oregon Trail Rally, the Ore­
gon Rally Group, is already
preparing for next year’s event.
The organizing team has de­
cided to stay with their late April
date on the Rally America
Championship calendar, and
have set April 21-23 for the
2006 event.
The 2006 rally will again be
run from Hillsboro, with com­
petitors facing the challenge of
northwest Oregon forest roads.
Next year will mark the “pass­
ing of the torch” for the role of
event chairman.
Matt Tabor, who was assis­
tant chairman for the 2005
event, will fill the position being
vacated by former Chairman
Ben Bradley. “Ben has led the
Oregon Trail Rally event from
success to success over the
last six years. We are all grate­
ful for his dedication and lead­
ership,” Tabor said. “My plan is
to build on these successes
and solidify the Oregon Trail
Rally as one of the premier ral­
ly events in the United States."
Next year’s event will follow
the familiar format of spectator
stages in the heart of the city at
Portland International Raceway
on Friday, followed by both fa­
miliar and newer stages in the
forest roads west of Hillsboro.
Additional information on the
2006 event will be posted on
the event website, <http://www.
oregontrailrally.com>, as fur­
ther details become available.
