They will be at Miller Motorsports in Utah the week prior with ALMS, but they cut Portland from their schedule.
They are still a poor enough series that they can't afford to do back to back weekends much unless it is on the East coast where most of the teams are located.
It is a real bummer. The SWC adds a lot to the ALMS weekend at Portland. This year, we are currently looking at ALMS, Porsche Cup cars, Star Mazda, and maybe the Mazda Miata's. There has been no more news as to any other support races that I have seen.
