Sonoma Double in Jeopardy?
Heard a rumor yesterday possibly moving to Vegas?
I hope this is not true.

Las Vegas in July? 4:00 A.M. might be only 90 degrees.

Re: Sonoma Double in Jeopardy?
I'm with you on this Barry. Although it's double the distance from my pad, I have family there, it's a track I've yet to race on, and could be home to my 1st 14sec et with "Shark Bait"!

Re: Sonoma Double in Jeopardy?
Hi Barry,
I heard the decision would be made in the next week. Sounds like we have a few races that may move around. (?) |

Perhaps they will run the dbl div after the National in Sonoma.

Re: Sonoma Double in Jeopardy?
Very sad California can't move forward from Covid. California was always the Hotrod world. Now Pomona is closed, Fontana Auto Club Dragway is closed. Sonoma is up in the air. I think Bakersfield runs races. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but they won't work with NHRA anymore. Sacramento is owned by a grump. Majority of division 7 racers live in the state. I feel bad for my fellow racers from "the Golden State."

Re: Sonoma Double in Jeopardy?
This state wants us under the thumb of Newsom for ever, it’s sad and very frustrating. Wish I could get out but my business does now allow it currently, very sad. The country hates California but #2 and #3 in charge are from this whack job state, go figure that one.

Re: Sonoma Double in Jeopardy?
I feel sorry for my CA friends but, I don't see very much happening in the Golden State. Tooooooooooo many DemocRATS involved. They keep telling everyone, that they have your best interest at heart but does anyone really believe that????????

Re: Sonoma Double in Jeopardy?
I'll put a different and unfortunately ignored spin on the two above posts:
1. I don't hate California as it's the state that my favorite form of motorsport originated from. DJT showed how little he cared for your state with his responses to your state's wildfires last year! 2. If #45 would've responded to Covid the way #43 & #44 did with SARS, & Ebola, we probably wouldn't be having this thread or any like it (and racing would be going on as it should), but no one will realize or recall that huh? Interesting....

I feel bad for the racers in California. I don't see any racing there for the foreseeable future with the leadership they have in place there. Best thing for NHRA would be to move out of Cali and get to a more racer friendly location.
