The DoorDash 250 was an annual NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race at Sonoma Raceway.

The race was previously held during the first four years of the Truck Series (from 1995 to 1998), but was dropped for 1999 as the series' second road course date moved to Portland International Raceway. At the time, the track was known as Sears Point International Raceway and the race was held in October as a standalone race from the Cup Series schedule.

01History

The 2022 Truck Series schedule was released on September 29 with Sonoma on Saturday, June 11. It replaced the race at the Watkins Glen road course, which had been added back on the Truck Series schedule in 2021 for the first time since 2000.

The 2022 race was 75 laps and 149.25 miles in length according to NASCAR.com. Stage 1, won by Ty Majeski, was 20 laps in length. Stage 2, won by Ben Rhodes, was 25 laps in length. The final stage was 30 laps in length.

The Truck Series (and the Cup Series) used this layout of the track with the carousel in 1995, 1996 and 1997 races at the track. The chute was used instead in 1998 and 2022.
