20th Anniversary Event
South Coast Raceway Celebrates 20 Years with a Massive Anniversary Race Meeting – February 7th, 2026
South Coast Raceway is thrilled to announce a milestone moment in our club’s history: 20 years of racing in Portland. To celebrate two decades of passion, dedication, and community, we are hosting a huge anniversary race meeting on Saturday, February 7th, 2026—set to be one of the biggest days of racing the track has ever seen.
Kicking off the weekend, Friday will feature a dedicated Radial Racing Prep Event, giving competitors and fans an exciting warm-up ahead of the big day. More details on the Friday program will be released soon.
Adding to the main-day excitement, the club is proud to confirm that Phil Lamattina will be headlining the event. Phil is bringing the FUCHS Top Fuel Dragster to the South Coast, and fans are in for an unforgettable experience as he performs three passes throughout the day. This is a rare opportunity to witness Top Fuel action up close at a regional venue, and it’s guaranteed to shake the ground and thrill the crowd.
The celebration doesn’t stop there. Saturday night will see the festivities continue with a live band, and top-notch catering to keep the atmosphere buzzing long after the racing ends.
Supporting the Top Fuel showcase will be a full day of racing featuring our sportsman competitors, nostalgia categories, and a strong field of racers from across the region. With fast-paced action, history on display, and a milestone worth celebrating, this is an event not to be missed.
The South Coast Raceway committee is proud to reach this significant milestone and extends its thanks to the racers, volunteers, sponsors, and loyal supporters who have helped build the club over the past 20 years.
Join us for a weekend of noise, nostalgia, entertainment, and non-stop racing as we celebrate two decades of drag racing in Portland.
More event details and schedules will be released soon.
