Antron Brown, who recently became just the seventh Professional driver in NHRA history to sweep the grueling Western Swing, will be a guest of Dave Despain on the popular Speed TV program Wind Tunnel Sunday, Aug. 2. The show airs from 9 to 10 p.m. ET.

“This is an awesome opportunity to showcase our sport of NHRA Drag Racing and our MAR Matco Tools team to a vast motorsports audience,” Brown said. “Dave is a cool dude. Like me, we’re both bike [motorcycle] guys. I was on his show after we won at Houston last year, and it’s an honor to be back on Wind Tunnel after the great run we’ve had out West.”

Brown, who has 23 NHRA wins, is the only driver in NHRA history to win races and lead the standings in both Top Fuel and Pro Stock Motorcycle. The former college track star at Mercer [N.J.] Community College has been arguably the hottest driver on the NHRA tour this season. Brown has a category-best five wins, eight final-round appearances, five No. 1 qualifying awards, six low elasped times of the meet, and seven top speeds of the meet. He also clocked the fastest 1,000-foot pass in Top Fuel racing (319.75 mph) in Bristol in May. Last Sunday in Sonoma, he joined NHRA standouts Joe Amato, Cory McClenathan, Larry Dixon, Tony Schumacher, John Force, and Greg Anderson as the only Professional racers to win all three of the Western Swing races (Denver, Seattle, and Sonoma). Brown also won in Phoenix and Madison this year.

With three races remaining before the Countdown to 1 playoffs begin at zMax Dragway, Brown owns a 199-point lead over six-time series champion Schumacher.
