Sonoma Raceway has its first new pavement in 23 years after a two-month project was completed last month, raceway officials said.
It started in December, with workers grinding down the old surface, repairing cracks and then laying down brand-new, long-lasting asphalt that enhances the racing surface on the 2.52-mile course.
Testing is planned for late March to prepare for the first NASCAR races at Sonoma in June. For tickets and more info, visit the raceway's official website.
