NHRA - National Hot Rod Association

Featuring a host of world champions and standout riders, the eight-bike field is set for this weekend’s GETTRX NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle All-Star Callout, with the specialty race grabbing the spotlight as part of the 36th annual Denso NHRA Sonoma Nationals at scenic Sonoma Raceway.
 
The fan-favorite facility plays host to the eight riders aiming for big money and bragging rights in the unique bonus race, which takes place on Saturday at Sonoma Raceway. Defending world champion Gaige Herrera has the top seed, which gives him the first pick in the GETTRX NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle All-Star Callout, while the riders seeded second through eighth are six-time world champion Matt Smith, Hector Arana Jr., Jianna Evaristo, Steve Johnson, who is making his 500th career start this weekend in Sonoma, Angie Smith, Chase Van Sant, who won on Sunday in Seattle, and John Hall, who slipped into the final spot.
 
It’s a standout lineup in the unique specialty event, which starts with the actual callout process on Friday at 2 p.m. PT on stage in the fan zone in the media. Herrera, who is the defending Callout winner, will select his first-round opponent, getting his pick of seven other riders. If Smith isn’t selected, he will get the next pick, followed by Arana until the first-round matchups are set.
 
The winning rider who makes the quickest run in the opening round will also get a chance to select their semifinal opponent, adding even more intrigue to the specialty race.
 
The first round of the NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle All-Star Callout takes place at noon PT, with the semifinals at 1:45 p.m. and the finals at 2:55 p.m. A special broadcast highlighting the specialty race will take place at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT on Saturday on FS1.
 
Herrera, who is also the points leader on the strength of six wins in the first seven PSM races, is after back-to-back wins in the Callout. But Van Sant, who is seeded seventh for the second straight year, ended Herrera’s NHRA-record streak of 11 straight victories and 46 consecutive round-wins with a victory on Sunday in Seattle. Evaristo is making her first appearance in the Callout, while both Matt and Angie Smith have proven to be successful in bonus races. Johnson is on the verge of an historic start and would love to win the Callout during his 500th start, while Arana, who is also sponsored by GETTRX, and Hall have proven plenty capable of going rounds this year as well.
