On this episode of the NHRA Insider Powered by Speedmaster Tony Pedregon of the NHRAonFox and Kevin McKenna of National Dragster join the show, and the conversation is locked in on the Brainerd Nationals, the pitched points battle for lucrative in-season championships, and more
The conversation this week really gets into the nuts and bolts of the teams, the drivers, and the cars that have a chance to land first in the points by the end of the regular season and the methods, challenges, and threats they face while trying to do it. There's plenty of talk about stats, driver performances, and the lessons this 2026 season has taught everyone in terms of who can get the job done and how they can do it.
The domination of the Kalitta Top Fuel cars is explored, the Pro Stock situation among leading teams, and the wide-open Funny Car battle that seems impossible to call, even now.
Loads of insight, loads of excitement, and all the knowledge to get you fired up for Brainerd and beyond!
