Twenty years ago, CSRG (Classic Sportscar Racing Group)<\/a> decided they wanted to work with the then named \u201cSears Point Raceway<\/a>\u201d to support the Sonoma, CA community. Since then, CSRG has raised more than $1,200,000 to help teenagers and young adults, quite a feat. The Charity Challenge<\/a> allows spectators to purchase rides in real race cars around Sears Point Sonoma Raceway. For many, riding around Sonoma Raceway at near racing speeds in a race car is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Saturday night, CSRG celebrated the 20th anniversary of the Charity Challenge with a party for team owners, drivers, crew members, track workers, and invited guests. Held in the T11 building. Sears Point’s new turn eleven track hospitality center. Chief Registrar Petey Thornton announced her retirement effective at the end of the 2023 season.\u00a0 She will be missed but has certainly paid her dues.\u00a0 It’s time for her to kick back and relax!<\/p>\n
