Oldest Rally In America: The Monte Shelton Northwest Classic

The Monte Shelton Northwest Classic Rally is a celebration of classic cars.  It is conducted over the course of four days in mid-summer and begins in Portland, Oregon.  It is organized around a traditional time-speed-distance rally and comprised of pre-1981 collector cars and their enthusiastic owners.  Organized by the Alfa Romeo Owners of Oregon and with the Monte Shelton Motor Company as the primary sponsor, the event is a benefit for the March of Dimes.

The Monte Shelton Northwest Classic Rally is the oldest still-running classic rally in America.  For over twenty years we have assembled a rich variety of classic cars whose owners share a common passion - driving and enjoying them.  We do this in a spirit of friendly competition over some of the Pacific Northwest’s most scenic roads, combined with delicious meals and always in an atmosphere of outstanding camaraderie.  Participants form a family who look forward to the event all year long.

We would like to invite you to become a member of this family by entering the 2011 Northwest Classic Rally.  In this four-day celebration you will encounter great cars, great roads, great people and great fun!

Please join us.
