Sonoma Raceway’s Wednesday Drags end Nov. 14

The 24th season of the popular Wednesday Night Drags at the Sonoma Raceway has five weeks remaining, with the final evening of action on the world-famous drag strip slated for Wednesday, Nov. 14.

Also on the Wednesday Night Drags weekly lineup is the equally popular “Top the Cops” program, and the motorsport of drifting.

The Top the Cops program is designed to help take illegal racing off the streets and bring it to a safe, legal and controlled environment, allowing high school students the opportunity to drag race against law enforcement officers, who will be driving their squad cars.

The Wednesday Night Drags are open to anyone with a driver’s license, and they can race any vehicle or motorcycle they bring to the track, provided it passes a simple tech inspection.

Gates open for “Drag and Drift” at 3:30, practice begins at 4, and the racing takes place from 5 to 10 p.m., with the STP Wednesday Night Drags cost being $25 for competitors, $15 for students with a high school ID, and $10 for spectators – season-long passes are also available – while the drifting costs are $40 for pre-registration and $50 at the gate.
