Get ready for the wackiest weekend in motorsports as the 24 Hours of Lemons hits Sonoma Raceway on March 22-23. This local twist on the international endurance racing series invites anyone with a vehicle (costing under $500, excluding safety equipment) to compete in a race where the goal is simple: go as long as you can before your car can’t take it anymore. 

The 24 Hours of Lemons isn't your typical high-stakes, high-budget motorsport event. In fact, the motto is a cheeky reminder of the event’s ethos: “Racing is not just for rich idiots. Racing’s for all idiots. (This includes you.)” It's a celebration of DIY ingenuity, team spirit, and, above all, fun. With bizarre vehicles, outrageous themes, and unpredictable action, you’ll witness a race that proves you don’t need a multi-million-dollar car to enjoy the thrill of motorsports. 

The event spans both race days, March 22 and 23, and will see teams pushing their $500 (or less) creations to the limit on Sonoma's world-renowned track. 24 Hours of Lemons promises to entertain with a mix of high-speed chases, bizarre breakdowns, and plenty of laughs. 

Spectators are invited to get up close and personal with all the action. For just $40, the all-access weekend pass allows attendees to experience everything from the pre-race test and inspection day to the high-octane madness of race day. Enjoy full access to the paddock, where you can meet the teams, see the quirky vehicles up close, and witness the thrills of racing from a unique perspective.
