• Cascade Sports Car Club

The club began life in 1953 as the 4-Cylinder Sports Car Club of Oregon with a total membership of fifteen. The club’s name was changed to the Cascade Sports Car Club in May 1956, and membership has since grown to exceed 200 members. A year-round event schedule keeps members entertained. Activities include track days, driver education for street and track, road racing, road rallies, the year-end awards banquet, and other social gatherings. Cascade General Meetings have been held monthly, and guests are always welcome. Join us and become part of our family.

The Cascade Sports Car Club’s Road Rally program, also known as Geargrinders, has been organizing time-speed-distance road rallies in and around Portland for over 50 years. The Mountains to the Sea Rally is a Cascade tradition, a scenic tour of western Oregon’s finest back roads from Portland to the Pacific Ocean, including the famous beach party. For many years, the Ghoul’s Gambol Halloween Rally included a tour of a haunted house haunted by club members. Ghoul’s Gambol returned to Cascade’s rally program in 2018 following a hiatus. Additionally, in 2018, the long-running Friday Nighter Rally Series was retired and replaced by the Saturday Road Rally Series, comprising five Saturday morning to early afternoon rallies. In the year of COVID, a successful Summer Saturday Series ran with the TSsD titles for “Time, Speed, Social Distance” rallies. The 2025 season promises to offer high-quality TSD road rally events and provide fun for both beginners and veterans alike.

Come and drive with us. The route is out there.
