"If you ain't got a clutch, you don't have much"

Looks like some cool racing for those into drags.

Yeah, I know that having to race against guys with built drag racing automatics is a bit turnoff for a lot of sports car and import guys with manuals.

While everyone in their "street" class top 10 last year had a muscle car or pony car (except the winner, who drove a jeep), any manual transmission car is welcome as long as it runs 17.50 or quicker, so this would be a great opportunity to have some fun in a competitive environment on the dragstrip with the majority of the cars on this forum.

I'll keep an eye on their schedule for next year.
