Three-time NASCAR Cup champ Tony Stewart set for NHRA Top Alcohol dragster driving debut.
Wife Leah Pruett is a racer in the NHRA's Top Fuel Dragster class.
“The team I’m driving for, McPhillips Racing, has been awesome to work with,” Stewart said. “They felt like I was ready to compete. With their confidence, that’s given me the confidence and courage to try something new and take the leap.” “I’ve been a rookie in a lot of different cars over the course of my career. That part won’t be new, but the drag racing side is so different from anything I’ve driven in the past. It’s all about procedures and knowing the routine and doing it the same every time,” Stewart said.
