- **Event Description**: 🔥 THE LAST CEDAR RAPIDS NIGHT MEET AT HAWKEYE DOWNS EVER🔥

You asked for it, so we're doing it one more time.

The Cedar Rapids Night Meet returns to Hawkeye Downs on September 4th, for one last meet. Last time, we PACKED the track in less than 90 minutes and had enthusiasts rolling in from all over the Midwest. Let's do it again. 

This event is proudly presented by Brown's West Branch Ford and is open to ALL cars, trucks and bikes.

🏁 Vehicle Staging Begins: 5:00 PM
🕜 Gates Open: 5:30 PM
💷Track Parking: $10 CASH ONLY per vehicle
👥 Spectators: $5pp CASH ONLY walking in the main gates/ Kids 12 and under are free

We are opening the track 30 minutes earlier to get everyone on the track more efficiently. As always, arrive together, park together—no saving spots. We'll be regulating track parking, so if you're bringing normal traffic, please use the spectator lot. 

**UPDATE SEE BELOW**
We will be doing a pre-sale option Saturday August 29th at Hawkeye Downs from 3-6pm. You can get your $20 ticket to skip the line for the last CR Night Meet of the season + get into the spectator area for free during the Asphalt Apocalypse which takes place on the 29th. This ticket gets you track parking wherever we see fit during the event. This ticket is non-refundable as it is the last event before they put dirt on the track. You must have cash to get your ticket. No card payments will be accepted. Only 100 tickets will be available - once they're gone they gone. 

If you want early entry and prime reserved parking you can apply for VIP.

We will have food from Back40 BBQ, Street Bites, O's Grill, Hawkeye Downs Concessions and don't miss the Night Meet Special from Grind Coffee. Let's close out the year by packing the track at the LAST Cedar Rapids Night Meet of the season.

We will have a live DJ from On The House - so no need to blast your Jeep speakers so they hear you on 6th Street

Stay late as the After Hours Performance 2-Step exhaust contest kicks off at 8:30pm. 

Spectators are welcome! We have a massive lot for spectators to walk over and enjoy the event. It is only $5pp CASH to come in and spectate. Kids 12 and under are free.


No burnouts, no hot lapping the track or stupid stuff. The speed limit is 5 mph. Want to rev the s#!t out of your car - do it in the 2-step/exhaust contest.

These events are expensive to host and we are doing everything we can to keep expenses down. We are looking for additional sponsors to help keep spectator entry free but at this time we will need to charge only $5pp for walk-ins. This is still the least expensive event that takes place at Hawkeye Downs. 

THIS IS A CASH ONLY EVENT - NO CARDS WILL BE ACCEPTED AT THE GATE. If you want faster entry, bring a crisp $10 bill and follow our staffs instructions.
