​Legendary John Force keeps on doing it after all these years.

The 16-time NHRA nitro Funny Car world champion showed he still has it.

There’s no question the sport of drag racing can be an emotional roller-coaster.

Top Fuel driver Cameron Ferre knows that all-to-well – especially after last offseason.

On Nov. 14, 2021, driving for Paton Racing, Ferre had a career-best performance, advancing to the semifinals at Auto Club NHRA Finals season-finale in Pomona, Calif.

It was the highlight of Ferre’s career, and he was excited to parlay that momentum in more success with the Patons in the 2022 NHRA Camping World Drag Racing Series.

If only John Force, the colorful 17-time Funny Car champion (one in the ADRA), had a dollar for every autograph he's signed in his illustrious career. 

Those dollars could likely field a fifth John Force Racing nitro entry. 

Force has signed it all, including a pig. Yes, a pig.

With the announcement of the Wild Horse Motorsports Park's departure from the Camping World Drag Racing Series tour after 2023, NHRA said in their statement there were replacement tracks being discussed to fill the void left by Atlanta Dragway, Houston Raceway Park and now Phoenix. We've compiled a small lift of tracks and would like to know where you would like to see the NHRA set up shop possibly in 2023 or beyond. 

Stringer Performance will have a new crew chief when it rolls into the NHRA Four-Wide Nationals this upcoming weekend in Las Vegas, NV. Jim Oberhofer will take over the tuning on the Parts Plus Top Fuel Dragster driven by Clay Millican for the remainder of the 2022 NHRA Camping World Professional Drag Racing Series.

“We are so happy to have Jim O join our racing family and make a run for the championship. His leadership qualities will definitely guide this race team to success. In addition, Jim O’s experience and expertise with this top fuel class will be a perfect combination to keep us contending all season long” remarks owner, Doug Stringer.

Since 2018, Matt Smith has been the class of NHRA’s Pro Stock Motorcycle class winning three world championships including the last two in a row.

However, Smith knew if he wanted the world championship hat trick he was going to have to switch from his reliable Buell to Suzuki.

Smith did just that in the 2021 offseason and he was riding a Suzuki at the Gatornationals, the season-opening race for the Pro Stock Motorcycle riders March 10-13 in Gainesville, Fla.

Smith qualified No. 1 but was then upset by Lance Bonham in round one, slowing to an 8.565 elapsed time.

Two-time NHRA Pro Modified champion Steve Jackson has been waiting for the perfect platform to let his idea be known. Tuesday night on the CompetitionPlus POWER HOUR, the man known as Stevie Fast let it rip. 

"I'll talk about one thing NHRA can do to fix all this bs," Jackson said. "Y'all want to know? I proposed it. Nobody wants to do it, and I have no idea why. I can't get them to tell me why they don't want to do it. They say it's not a good idea. You know how to fix all this parity bs in Pro Mod?"

Jackson can name that tune in three words.

Hunter Green, the son of NHRA Funny Car and Pro Mod driver Chad Green, will make his NHRA Top Alcohol Dragster debut this weekend at the 4-Wide Nationals at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. It’s the first of two planned races driving one of Randy Meyer Racing’s nitro-injected A/Fuel dragsters to get seat time for an eventual move up to Top Fuel.   

Green earned his Top Alcohol Dragster license with Randy Meyer Racing during a preseason test session at Phoenix before upgrading his license in a Tim Wilkerson-tuned Top Fuel dragster.  

​Texas Motorplex co-owner Christie Meyer Johnson has announced that General Manager Andy Carter submitted his resignation to pursue other business opportunities. 

Carter joined the staff at the Texas Motorplex in 2014 as the vice president of sales and three years later was promoted to his current position as general manager of the multi-use facility that annually hosts the Stampede of Speed and NHRA FallNationals in addition to a full schedule of additional motorsports and family-friendly events. 

NHRA officials announced Michigan’s Milan Dragway as the latest addition to the NHRA Member Track roster.

Located in Milan, Mich., Milan Dragway is co-owned and operated by Perry Merlo and Harold Bullock.
