POWEREDGE NAMED PRESENTING SPONSOR OF DENSO NHRA SONOMA NATIONALS AT SONOMA RACEWAY
SONOMA, Calif. (June 10, 2025) – NHRA officials announced today that PowerEdge, a new line of high-quality, competitively-priced commercial and heavy-duty truck aftermarket products, has been named the presenting sponsor of the 37th annual DENSO NHRA Sonoma Nationals at scenic Sonoma Raceway.
The DENSO NHRA Sonoma Nationals presented by PowerEdge takes place July 25-27 in Sonoma, serving as the 12th of 20 races during the 2025 NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series season.
The annual trek to wine country and picturesque Sonoma Raceway has long been one of the highlights on the NHRA tour. For nearly 40 years, fans have flocked to Sonoma and have been treated to a scenic racing facility that is traditionally one of the fastest tracks on the NHRA schedule.
“We are excited to showcase PowerEdge as the presenting sponsor of the 2025 DENSO NHRA Sonoma Nationals,” said Jose Ramirez, Senior Manager, Sales. “As we continue to grow the PowerEdge brand, this sponsorship underscores our dedication to quality, reliability, and the passion that drives both our customers and the motorsports community.”
The 2025 DENSO NHRA Sonoma Nationals presented by PowerEdge features the GETTRX NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle All-Star Callout. Riders will compete in the Callout style specialty event, picking their first-round opponent in a bonus event that features big money and bragging rights.
Matt Smith won the bonus race and event last year, while other 2024 winners were Top Fuel’s Antron Brown, who went on to win his fourth Top Fuel title, Funny Car veteran Bob Tasca III and Pro Stock’s Aaron Stanfield.
Brown has five Top Fuel wins at the fan-favorite facility, matching Doug Kalitta for the most in Top Fuel history. John Force’s eight Sonoma victories leads all Funny Car drivers, while reigning Pro Stock world champ Greg Anderson has a class-best six victories at Sonoma Raceway.
“We are thrilled to welcome PowerEdge as the presenting sponsor of the DENSO NHRA Sonoma Nationals,” said Brad Gerber, NHRA Vice President and Chief Development Officer. “PowerEdge is an exciting new line of aftermarket products, and this partnership is a great fit with the NHRA’s passionate racing community. We’re proud to help introduce the PowerEdge brand to our fans in Sonoma and across the country during what is always one of the most anticipated events of the NHRA season.”
