This weekend June 30th – July 2, 2023 at Pacific Raceways legendary 10 turn 2.25-mile road course the racing machines of the Society of Vintage Racing Enthusiasts will be competing in the 35th Annual Pacific Northwest Historics race. This year’s race will be celebrating the 120th Anniversary of Ford Racing cars. It is presented by Way Scarff Ford. The three-day event is a fundraiser to benefit the children at Seattle Children’s Hospital and since its first year has raised over ten million dollars.
Taking to the track will be the likes of Corvette, Camaro, Porsche and Alfa Romeo. In addition, there will be the Triumphs, MG’s, BMWs and many others including Open Wheel racing machines. Drivers and teams will be coming from around the Northwest, Canada and across the country. Steve Saleen will be this year’s Featured Guest. There will also be the ever-popular Car Corral with hundreds of beautiful cars on display for all to enjoy. Once again there will be “Vendor’s Row” with items available to learn about or purchase. Tickets are available at the gate or online. An adult one-day ticket is $25. Youth ages 7-16 are $5.
Military and First Responders (with ID) are $10, and Seniors over 65 are $15. This is the Premier Vintage road race on the West Coast, and is not one you want to miss out on. Not only do you get to excitement of three days of great racing, but we get to help the kids win the struggles they may be facing.
Our Independence Day is a reminder of what our country has been through over the years, and because of the sacrifices that have been made that allow all of us to enjoy weekends like this one.
