Hello Fellow GHMC Members!

This is being sent out to gauge interest in an event at Sonoma Raceway.There will be 7 Drag events this year. They will be on;
 
April 10
May1
June 26
July 10
August 7
Sept 11
October 16
 
GHMC is tentatively planning on attending the Sept 11 or October 16 event.

It runs from 4:00pm to 10:00pm and the fees are as follows.

Spectator fee is $20.00
Racer fee is $60.00
High School is still $20.00

I plan on going out to the track as a spectator just to check it out on May1 just to get a feel for things. Perhaps we should put out a email blast to see if anyone else is interested and we can carpool?
 
More Information can be found at:

https://www.sonomaraceway.com/experiences/sonoma-drags-drift/

The intent here is just to have a good time with fellow GHMC members and enjoy some old style drag racing with street cars. There is no expectation to set records. The only purpose is to have fun. Many have never been on a drag strip or have any real idea of how fast their car is. This will be an opportunity to check both of those boxes. No one is expected or encouraged to go out and damage their cars or do anything dangerous. Hopefully, all anyone will have is fun, a time slip, and be able to say that your car has been down the drag strip.

Please reply to this email if you are interested in being either a spectator or participant. No date has been set, yet. We are looking to see how much interest there is in doing this before putting a lot of effort into organizing it. Any car is eligible. It does not have to be a Mustang.

Remember! The purpose is to have fun #1, as either a spectator or driver. Get a timeslip #2. And #3 to be able to say, "I have driven my car on the drag strip!".

Please reply now.

Thank You!

From Matthew Brown:

Mr. Banovitz,

I wanted to personally thank you for the care package the Golden Hills Mustang Club sent me.  I personally took the girl scout cookies for myself but handed out the remainder of the package to one of my
squads.  They were very thankful of the socks and magazines as entertainment runs short out here.

Please give our thanks to CrossFit Solano as well.

Again, thank you for  your support.  It is received well by me and my Platoon.

How's it going Sir,
 
Just wanted to let you know from me an my platoon that we were very grateful for the package you sent SFG Gorbet he was quick to pass out a few things to us an share the love lol. I had to acknowledge the fact you went out of your way for us. Being on the other side of the world away from family gets rough sometimes. But just small kind gestures like that make it slightly better. I really appreciated it.


Thank you,
       PV2 Johnson

We just received your care package here at the Pedro compound. We appreciate your recognition, thanks, and the especially the Girl Scout Cookies!

From all of us here at the 26 ERQS Pedros a big thank you. Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you.
