About this event
Sears Point Challenge at Sonoma Raceway 2026
This is our signature event, with over 250 entries, spectators, car club displays, vintage aircraft flyovers and more. This is a full three-day event, with practice and some qualifying on the optional Friday session. Since the first Charity Challenge in 2004 our charity rides program has raised over $1M for Sonoma Children's Charities. Racers can offer to give rides to spectators and fans of vintage racing while helping raise funds for local children’s charities. A highlight of the weekend is our Saturday night social where we come together and celebrate the shared passion of racing. In addition to our standard race groups, we will also have the Hoosier 2.5 B/C sedan challenge and Club Wheelhouse Classic Cup group as guests.
All CSRG-compliant cars (see Section III B, page 4, and Appendix A of the General Rules and Safety Regulations at <http://csrgracing.org/rulescsrg.html> for compliance requirements) are welcome, as are all drivers with current VMC member organization Medical Cards.
Fees: CSRG requires all drivers be either a Full Racing Member of CSRG, or a Single-event Member. Our friends from other racing organizations may choose the Single-event Membership for $100, but we encourage you to consider joining CSRG as a Full Racing Member ($200/yr) and enjoy the full benefits of membership throughout the year.
FYI Online Registration is suspended at 6pm the Friday prior to the event. This allows for entries to be assigned run groups and the roster created; the board approves the roster; and, finally, Geoff Pitts sets the schedule so that, as much as possible, drivers with multi cars are not in back-to-back sessions. Late Registrations will be accepted at the track before the event. Please email registrar@csrgweb.org for more info.
Cancelation Policy: If your withdrawal is received in writing seven (7) or more days before the event, you may request a refund of your fees, less $100 processing charges. If your withdrawal request is received less than seven (7) days before the event, you may request a refund of your fees, less $200 processing charges. No refunds will be given once the driver has completed check-in whether that be the Friday or Saturday of a race event.
