MotorTrend Presents Roadkill Nights Powered by Dodge is taking street-legal drag racing on Woodward Avenue to the center of downtown Pontiac, Michigan, and increasing the presence of the one-day horsepower celebration. The enthusiast event is scheduled to take place on Saturday 12 August 2023. Roadkill Nights set a one-day attendance record of more than 40,000 attendees in 2022. This year it will move the starting line for drag racing competition to the corner of Woodward Avenue and W. Pike St. in Pontiac.

“We can’t wait to bring Roadkill Nights and street-legal drag racing to the heart of downtown Pontiac,” said Tim Kuniskis, Dodge brand CEO at Stellantis. “Roadkill Nights continues to evolve each year, with the Pontiac stop serving as the second of two Roadkill Nights events in 2023. Our little horsepower circus has grown from a grassroots event to a can’t-miss event for any true muscle car enthusiast.”

He’s right, this year it’s number two. Dodge Last Call Powered by Roadkill Nights Las Vegas, held at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on 20 March 2023, brought the horsepower circus west for the first time and served as the setting for the helicopter-drop reveal of the 1025-horsepower Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170, the seventh and final Dodge “Last Call” special-edition vehicle to be revealed.
