The largest off-road racetrack in North America, the Cayuse is known
for its winding turns in the beautiful Oregon hills. Open from April to
September, the track sometimes is used during the winter for snowmobile
racing depending on the snowfall. With three levels imparted by the hills
the Cayuse is an interesting track. It's part of the Overdrive Circuit.
