About the event

WhenNovember 11, 2026 · 4:00 PM
WhereMaple Grove Raceway, 30 Stauffer Park Ln., Mohnton

Maple Grove Raceway opens its quarter mile to street cars for a test and tune session, with a gamblers race rolled into the same program. Drivers bring whatever they drive, make passes down the strip, and use the timing slips to dial in launches, shift points, and reaction times.

The gamblers race is the optional side of the night. It runs as a bracket style showdown that racers sign up for when they arrive, open to a wide mix of machines rather than one set class, which makes for unpredictable pairings and a lively staging lane.

You do not need a car to take part. Spectators are welcome to watch from the stands, walk up with questions, and get a feel for how drag racing works from the people doing it. The track makes a point of welcoming newcomers, so this is a comfortable first visit for anyone in Berks County who has driven past the gates and wondered what happens inside.
