The highly successful Roadkill Nights, now dubbed “MotorTrend Presents Roadkill Nights Powered by Dodge,” is moving to Pontiac (Michigan) with street racing down Woodward Avenue. The event, which attracted 40,000 people last year, is moving the starting line to Woodward and West Pike Street to expand the venue for the one-day festival of horsepower on August 12, 2023.
This will be the eighth year for the festival. The second event of 2023 will include a muscle car show, Dodge Thrill Rides, a vendor midway, and more. Mayor Tim Greimel praised the move downtown, saying it would reduce noise in residential areas while bringing more business to retail outlets and restaurants.
