About O'Reilly Auto Parts 25th Annual NHRA Northwest Nationals
When Dan Fiorito Sr. opened Pacific Raceways in 1960, he wanted to create a safe environment for auto racing. That simple wish lead to the founding of a site that would eventually become one of the largest outdoor spectator venues in the state. Mario Andretti, Al Unser, and Jerry "The King" Ruth all foot-pedaled their way around the tracks, and the crowds flocked to watch them.
Decades later, the raceway continues to welcome thousands of fans as they watch regional and national races featuring renowned drivers. The quarter-mile drag strip remains a main attraction, hosting weekly races as well as a junior dragster series. The 2.25-mile, SCCA-approved road course, with its challenging nine-turn circuit, makes it an ideal location for year-round competition. In between scheduled events, regional law-enforcement agencies and high-performance driving schools—such as ProFormance Racing School—use the course to practice maneuvers.
