Portland ACA track day questions

Hi Guys - if there is anyone in the Portland ACA that can answer this I'd appreciate it. A buddy and I up here in the Northwest (Puget Sound CCA) are looking at driving down to Portland for a High Performance Track Day this summer....it looks like there are a couple to pick from in July and August. As BMW CCA members, do we have reciprical rights to attend a track day in Portland through the ACA?

Also, are there any differences in how the High Perf driving schools are ran in the Portland ACA vs the Puget Sound CCA? For example, do you get more (or less) track time? Are instructors always in your car with you while on the track?

Any insight you can provide is appreciated. Thanks.

The ACA does allow CCA members to attend. I am unsure if the track time is the same or different. The instructors are there for as long as you want or need them to be but may be required your first time out.
