Jeg Coughlin Jr. is best known for the four Pro Stock titles and 49 national event wins he's amassed in his JEGS.com Chevrolet Cobalt, but its no secret the 39-year-old from Columbus, Ohio, loves to race in the sportsman classes.

This weekend at Gateway International Raceway, Coughlin will once again pull double-duty, adding a foray into Top Dragster to his Pro Stock aspirations.

Coughlin will be piloting his oldest brother John's championship-winning Top Dragster entry at Gateway and is expected to challenge for the trophy. The last time he competed in the class was in 2006 when he won the JEGS Cajun SPORTSnationals at No Problem Raceway in Belle Rose, La. He also won the last time he drove one of John's cars, which was in 2003 when he took home the Super Stock Wally at St. Louis.
