The inaugural Sonoma Speed Festival takes place May 30th to June 2nd, 2019 at the illustrious Sonoma Raceway, in Sonoma, California.  The 2.52 mile, 12-turn course will play host to a weekend of historic automobile racing and displays, the likes of which many are calling the Sonoma Speed Festival an attempt at an American version of the famed “Goodwood Revival.”  Not just a vintage car race, the festival aims to combine the unique Nor Cal culture with exciting historic racing with the inclusion of art, fine cuisine, and a variety of live music.  With no disrespect to the Monterey Motosports Reunions races, where all passes must be made with several feet of clearance, we sincerely hope the Sonoma Speed Festival features some actual racing.  

Elite collectors and racers are being invited to this inaugural event, and potential entrants are encouraged to contact the organizers.  A fair number of interesting cars are already confirmed for the event, including a two Ferrari 250GTO’s a couple Ford GT40’s among others.

Ticket packages are now on sell for this event.  For more information click here:  Sonoma Speed Festival
