Steve Woods is the latest entry for Sonoma Magic#2 set for Sunday, November 26 at Sonoma Raceway
To date, all entries are equipped with automatic transmissions which has surprised me. I am sure there must be some manually shifted types out there lurking some where for the stick shift class that have yet to sign up?
Should know more when the Wednesday night drags at Sonoma returns on September 20th and the 27th

Thanks Chuck, you have been added.
Handed out a few fliers tonight at the weekly Wednesday night drag races at Sonoma that you were kind enough to make up.
Fellow announcer Garry Carlson will soon start on the big specialty trophy which will be awarded to the overall champion show down run off between the automatic and manually shifted class champions.

Still time to pre enter for the Corvette Class drag races at Sonoma set for Sunday, November 26.
Track will be supplying trophies in addition to the hand crafted trophy created by Garry Carlson for the shootout Champion of the Automatic and stick shift winner run off.

I'm going to have to bow out of this... I'm showing my car at the SF Auto Show, and I don't get the car back until Monday the 27th... I was sooo looking forward to this meet too! I'll catch you guys on the next one!

Sorry that you will not be able to make it George yet I fully understand your reason for not being able to attend.
Have fun at the car show and enjoy yourself. At least you are doing something that makes you happy and that's what life's all about
There will be another times for drag racing at Sonoma with your friends in the Corvette community. I am in hopes that Chuck can secure a few race dates for the 2018 season.
Thanks for letting me know in advance.
Jim

Thanks for your inquiry...
Since performance levels can vary from one car to another, it is a bracket type event all based on individual ET's decided by each driver.
