It is with heavy heart we pass along the news of long time D1 ,ASRA stock eliminator racer Woody Pagano Thursday Dec 15th. Anyone that new Woody new what a character he was. Along with being a fierce competitor in his Big block Nova , he always had a smile and some little remark like his patented " You look Marvelous" always brought a smile to your face. RIP Woody 🙏 You will truley be missed !
