2025 DWA! SIERRA RALLY

Cars with “sense of occasions” of any year are eligible

DWA! Rally #17

OCT 3-5, 2025

What is the DWA! sierra Rally?

This DWA! Sierra Rally is our 16th multi-day rally, and our 5th Sierra Rally that we’ve held. A three-day driving event open to cars with a sense of occasion, great people on epic California backroads.

The DWA! Rallies are often reffered to as “summer camp”. You’ll meet and

reconnect with friends to drive some of the best roads in the world. And like summer camp, it’s always hard to say goodbye when it’s over and tears will be shed.

There are plenty of vintage rallies throughout California, but none of us at DWA! had cars that qualify...so we

started our own. We are all about diversity and we are glad that you took the opportunity to join us for a weekend tour of some of our favorite roads throughout California.

When?

Thursday, Oct 3rd - Sunday, Oct 5th

Where?

Starting in Sonora, CA.

Is my car eligible?

All cars from the begining of time to now are considered, but we do have standards. We’re hoping to keep the rally full of cars with a “sense of occasion” and the registration form has some space to tell a little history of you and your car.

Weather:

Rain or shine, we will have a good time.

The entrance fee will include the following:

  • 2 Hosted Dinners

  • Rally stickers

  • Other goodies from DWA! and our sponsors

  • Detailed Rally Guide Book

  • Raffle entry (prizes donated by our generous sponsors)

  • Roadside assistance provided by Hagerty Insurance

Rules/Tips:

  • This is not a race! Drive at a pace thatis comfortable to you and within the posted speed limits.

  • If you pull over, show a thumbs up if you are alright or a thumbs down if you need help.

  • Cars filling your rearview mirror? Pull over at a safe spot or point to pass in an appropriate passing zone.

  • Don’t drive like a jerk! Everyone on the rally is your friend. If you drive like an jerk, you’ll be asked to leave and won’t be invited back.

  • Try and introduce yourself to everyone on the rally, stop to smell the roses and have an awesome time.
