Aero Sports & Hobbies in Gresham - Outdoor offroad track.
Hometown Hobbies / A-Main Raceway in Vancouver - Indoor offroad in the winter (including nitro), outdoor offroad and onroad in the summer.
R/C Plus in Salem - Indoor carpet onroad (year round)
Timezone Raceway in Battleground, WA - Outdoor onroad, probably the nicest private track in the NW.
There are rumors of at least two other tracks that are to open in the area.
A word of warning about Aero - the owner of the hobby shop does not own the track, and shows very little interest in answering questions about anything related to it. I've known the guy for 16 years, he's always had the worst prices in town, and some of the worst service. He's got a great setup with the potential to bring a TON of people in to the r/c hobby, but he has chosen to ignore us.

Oh yeah - Can't forget about Rose City Scale racing. They run down at R/C Plus during the winter, but in the summer, they hold a couple of races out at Timezone, and do most club races at the Expo Center. On road 1/8th scale, 1/5th scale, 1/10th scale outlaw, and 1/10th scale sedan.

Yes, they do allow nitro cars on the offroad track - they're even allowing 1/8th scale now.
As far as the track fees are concerned, they've gotta cover operating expenses. That place isn't cheap to run. The lease on the buiding alone would blow you away. We're lucky the owner is an r/c freak. - Brendon

Brendon,
What up man? How you been?
Do you and Tim get to the track at all? I noticed his car for sale, my old B3. Still got the rally car?

Nope, haven't been up to the track in a long time. Going through a big life change, don't have the time or money anymore. Plus I've kinda redirected my attention to fast electric boats.
Tim is anxiously awaiting spring, when 1/5th scale season starts again. I'm going to try and buy another car before then. 1/5th scale rules!

Hey guys. The track here in Eugene is going to be sweet. We have been working hard and got it almost done. There are some good jumps and will be a great technical section. We will be racing this year, not sure of the schedule but I will post it as soon as I know.

Well guys it looks like the track will be ready by the end of this month. Last weekend we changed the Layout and it is really nice. We have some elavation changes a dbl dbl and some real nice technical stuff. This track is really good for all types of cars. We even had a guy running a rally car. He had a tough time on the bigger jumps but turned really good lap times. If you run electric this track is also good for them, even though its a litlle longer than some. There are some picks of the track over a Savage central. If anyone wants to come down and run just email me.

Hey guys the season at RCSX is starting this weekend. Check the website for updates. RCsupercross.com We should be running all classes and should have a fast 1/8th scale class. THe track should be in good condition and pretty hard packed. We are gonna need to blow off the top, but then its nice and hard.
