Nitro special: Burnouts, tire inflation and footprint, brake pad life, setback blowers
At every NHRA national event, NHRA announcer Alan Reinhart offers fans the chance to send him an email with technical questions about the race cars, the tracks, and the procedures. As part of a semi-regular feature, we share those questions and answers on NHRA.com.
Reigning champ Greg Anderson confident as Pro Stock plots Epping return
After a monstrous 2021 season, it would be logical to expect that reigning and five-time Pro Stock world champion Greg Anderson would roll into the new year with a bit of momentum. So far, he hasn't yet shown a continuation of the steady hand he possessed all last year but he well understands the ebb and flow of drag racing.
Funny Car champ Ron Capps carries momentum into team ownership
Although the initial growing pains of becoming a team owner have mostly subsided, Ron Capps heads into this next part of the season with those challenges still fresh in his memory — and he's using them as fuel.

Golden-throated Dave McClelland, the voice of the NHRA through the 1970s, ‘80s, and '90s both on television and at the racetrack, passed away May 22 of natural causes. He was 85.
Did you see it? The fastest drag strip pass ever clocked on a motorcycle
At the 2022 Virginia NHRA Nationals, Larry "Spiderman" McBride made the fastest pass ever recorded —268 mph— on a motorcycle. See and hear how this Top Fuel bike went as fast as it did from the Virginia native himself.
'You Wear 40 Pounds of Gear Because, You Know, You're on Fire Quite a Bit'
