Round 1. Let’s light this thing up! Dragway 42 in West Salem, Ohio is where my 2026 IHRA Nitro Series season gets rolling, August 28 through 30. Three days of Pro Mod qualifying and eliminations under the lights, and this field does not take rounds off. Good. Neither do I.
I have been counting down to this one. Stella is ready, the team is ready, and I am more than ready to put that Cadillac back where she belongs.
If you’re coming out, find us in the pits. I’ll be signing, talking shop, and probably talking your ear off! Brands and sponsors, stop by the trailer, because the best conversations in racing happen at the racetrack. Can’t make it? The full schedule lists every stop.
