Speedmaster, the global leader in high-performance automotive parts and motorsports culture, has increased its partnership to full primary sponsorship of John Force Racing’s Top Fuel Dragster team driven by Josh Hart in the NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series. Speedmaster was announced as a co-primary partner with Hart’s Burnyzz Speed Shop on Jan. 28 of this year. Both Speedmaster and Burnyzz Speed Shop will continue to have brand identification on all four of John Force Racing’s teams throughout the year. The Speedmaster Top Fuel Dragster will make its debut April 10-12 at the NHRA Winternationals at In-N-Out Burger Pomona Dragstrip. “I’ve never had a sponsor contribute so much so fast,” said Hart. “The partnership is beyond just parts and sponsorship for the race car. We quickly became friends. We quickly understand each other’s businesses. Jason’s been great. The whole Speedmaster team has really been kind of rallying behind this. He mentioned to me that this is a lifelong dream of his to be a primary sponsor on a Top Fuel car with John Force Racing. The fact that we were able to collaborate and put it together as quickly as we did is absolutely epic. Speedmaster stepping into the primary spot alleviates some pressure on me, puts them in the spotlight, which is what they deserve and, hopefully, it’s a long-term partnership for years to come.” Hart won the 2026 NHRA season-opening Gatornationals on March 8 in his John Force Racing debut. A second-round finish two weeks later at the Arizona Nationals finds the team second in the point standings heading into the Winternationals. “Even though we went out in the second round at Arizona, I think, as of right now, I may have already eclipsed all of my round wins from last year already this year,” Hart said. “So, for me, this early season has been very positive. There’s a lot of momentum, a lot of excitement. The track was hot in Arizona so we can’t beat everybody up over that. And we know that the conditions in Pomona are always good. So, I’m very confident. I think we’ll be right there in the Top 5 as far as qualifying goes, which will change our stars on race day. And we’ll get this Speedmaster team right back in line.” Overall, John Force Racing drivers have won 32 times in three events at In-N-Out Pomona Dragstrip (17 times in the Winternationals, 14 times in the Finals plus John Force’s win in the 50th Anniversary NHRA Nationals in 2001).

Leah Pruett and Matt Hagan are keeping their standards high as they enter this weekend’s Lucas Oil NHRA Winternationals at In-N-Out Burger Pomona Dragstrip. Pruett will feature Rinnai Tankless Water Heaters as her Top Fuel dragster’s primary livery for the first time in the 2026 Mission Foods NHRA Drag Racing Series season while teammate Matt Hagan will feature Johnson’s Horsepowered Garage on his Dodge//SRT Hellcat Funny Car. Pruett, who stepped back into the seat of her Dodge dragster after starting a family, hasn’t missed a beat since her return. Currently fourth in points, Pruett qualified third at the season opener in Gainesville, Florida before a quarterfinal exit and she followed up that performance with a No. 2 qualifying position and runner-up finish at the NHRA Arizona Nationals just over two weeks ago. “Over the course of history, the Winternationals has been the kick-off race for the NHRA, where you first started to find your footing for the season. This year, being third on the schedule and an already 14 laps in, I feel an elevated level of preparedness for the Winternationals that I’ve never felt before,” said Pruett who won the 2017 and 2021 Winternationals. “I am more comfortable in the car than even at the start of the season. Winning the Winternationals in the past meant you hit the ground running. Right now, we already have momentum. It can be done; we can win and knowing we are capable is what excites me most.” Pruett, who with husband Tony Stewart splits her residence between Columbus, Indiana and Lake Havasu, Arizona, is originally from Redlands, California, just about 40 miles from In-N-Out Burger Pomona Dragstrip. “Racing in Southern California and at the Pomona Dragstrip specifically is forever sentimental because it’s home for me,” Pruett said. “Those purple mountains visible from the staging lanes and behind the tower always bring a sense of majesty to the races. That combined with not only the NHRA heritage but my own, puts it on another level.” The last time Pruett was in the driver’s seat at In-N-Out Burger Pomona Dragstrip was the NHRA Finals of 2023 where she faced off in a winner-takes-the-championship final round against now two-time and reigning world champion Doug Kalitta. Pruett finished runner-up and third in the championship points standings. But a lot has happened since then. “I’ve thought a lot about that day, that final round. Finishing a race weekend with a Wally is always the goal. Getting the win this weekend in Pomona would also simultaneously finish that last piece of unfinished business. But that chapter has closed and so much life has taken place since then,” Pruett explained. “The Winternationals carries with it new beginnings, with new orders of business that are far greater than just one round at one racetrack against one team.” Pruett will have extra to compete for this weekend. The Top Fuel team earned a spot in the Mission Foods #2Fast2Tasty NHRA Challenge by making it past the quarterfinals in Arizona. Pruett will have a rematch against semifinal opponent Kalitta during Saturday qualifying. “I am in my element when I’m competing and the more I can be in that element, the better. No simulator in the world can give you the experience that something like the Tortilla Tussle (aka the #2Fast2Tasty Challenge) does,” Pruett said. “I’ve always thought the #2Fast2Tasty challenge was neat. It gives fans a chance to see competition on Saturday and if you couldn’t put down great qualifying on Friday, it still gets you the chance to qualify at the back of your class in the session. There’s the added value of the bonus championship points and a bit of a cash bonus for the guys. So, it’s a win all the way around to be in it.” On the Funny Car side, Matt Hagan and his JHG team will also compete in the #2Fast2Tasty Challenge. Hagan raced to a semifinal finish in Arizona. He’ll get the chance to redeem himself against 2025 Rookie of the Year Spencer Hyde for a chance at the bonus points and cash prize. “The Mission Foods #2Fast2Tasty Challenge, racing within a race, is always great. I think it gives you an opportunity to get your adrenaline up and get out there and recreate what could happen on Sunday,” said Hagan who took home the overall Mission Foods #2Fast2Tasty Challenge trophy at the end of the regular season last year. “Competition is competition, I don’t care whether we’re racing lawn mowers or racing fuel Funny Cars. You just want to see the win light come on and know that you did a better job than the person beside you. It’s another accomplishment and Mission Foods have done a great job putting money back in our guys’ pockets and give them something to be motivated about. I want to thank Mission Foods for continuing this program, continuing the money and continuing to give out the trophies and accolades that come along with it.” Hagan finished second in the 2025 NHRA championship points battle after winning what would be the final race of the season in Las Vegas due to a rain out at the NHRA Finals. He’s kicked off the 2026 season with a No. 5 qualifying position and quarterfinal exit in Gainesville, Florida and a No. 4 qualifying effort and semifinal finish in Arizona, putting him fifth heading into race three of 20. “Momentum is everything. We ended 2025 really strong. We didn’t get the chance to compete in Pomona at the Finals I really thought we had something to really contend for the championship, and we just had it pulled out from underneath our feet,” Hagan said. “But we’re still right there. Qualifying well, winning rounds. And you know, Pomona has been good to me. It’s one of the racetracks where we’ve had a lot of wins, been crowned champion there multiple times. Long story short, track record is good there.” Hagan is the winningest active Funny Car driver at In-N-Out Pomona Dragstrip with seven victories at the facility, second overall only to legend John Force who has 17. At no track has Hagan raced in more final rounds; at the Winternationals alone Hagan has made seven final round appearances with a total of four wins (2023, 2018, 2017, 2015). “We have a lot of momentum and things are going well so I’m excited to get out to Pomona and put on a show for these fans. I think that’s the biggest thing that we forget sometimes when we get so caught up in the winning and the glory and all the all the other things that come along with it,” Hagan said. “You have to remember you have to put on a great show because without our fans we don’t get to do this. A great show sells tickets and a great side-by-side drag race sells tickets and that’s what we’re looking forward to doing out there this weekend.” Competition at the NHRA Winternantionals at In-N-Out Pomona Drag Strip begins with four rounds of qualifying Friday at 1:30 and 4 p.m. and Saturday at 12:30 and 3 p.m. Eliminations are slated for Sunday at 11 a.m. Television coverage of the event will air on FOX Sports 1 (FS1) beginning Sunday with a qualifying show at 11:30 a.m. ET and a Finals show at 6:30 p.m. ET.

Camrie Caruso Motorsports is proud to announce that Allen Johnson, one of the most accomplished and respected names in NHRA Pro Stock history, will take the wheel of the Green Genie Mountain Motor Pro Stock Car as Camrie Caruso steps away from driving duties for the 2026 season to focus on starting a family. While Caruso will be away from the driver’s seat this season, she plans to remain involved with the team and is expected to return to competition next season. Johnson, a celebrated NHRA Pro Stock veteran, is best known as the 2012 NHRA Pro Stock World Champion and a seven-time winner of the Mopar Mile-High NHRA Nationals, earning him the title “King of the Mountain.” Following a decorated 22-year career with Mopar, Johnson retired from full-time Pro Stock competition in 2017, but his impact on the sport has continued. In 2023, he made headlines once again in Factory X, becoming the first member of the Jesel 200 MPH Club. This special opportunity also marks a reunion of one of drag racing’s most respected championship combinations. Jim Yates, who worked alongside Johnson during his NHRA Pro Stock championship run, will once again be calling the shots as tuner, while Adrian Long continues as car chief. “This wasn’t an easy decision, but family comes first,” said Camrie Caruso. “I’m stepping away for this season to focus on starting a family, but I fully plan to be back behind the wheel next season. In the meantime, I can’t think of anyone better than Allen Johnson to drive this car. His experience, talent, and success speak for themselves, and having Jim Yates and Allen back together again with Adrian Long as car chief makes this really special. It truly feels like we’ve got the band back together.” The Green Genie Mountain Motor Pro Stock entry will hit the track backed by an outstanding group of partners, including Green Genie, CDL Training Academy, Woods Creek Coffee, VP Racing Fuels, The HubSaver, and Iconic Apparel. “We’re proud to continue pushing forward with our program and representing all of the incredible partners who support us,” Caruso added. “This team has worked hard to build something special, and I’m excited to watch it continue this season, and I couldn’t be more thankful for the partners who stand by us season after season.” With Johnson’s championship pedigree, Yates’ proven tuning expertise, and a strong team behind the scenes, Camrie Caruso Motorsports is ready to make a statement with the Green Genie Mountain Motor Pro Stock program.

Elite Motorsports, one of the most dynamic teams in NHRA Drag Racing, brings its seven-car camp to the Lucas Oil NHRA Winternationals at In-N-Out Burger Pomona Drag Strip, race three of 20 on the 2026 Mission Foods NHRA Drag Racing Series schedule. After five years, Jeg Coughlin Jr., a six-time world champion and future Hall of Famer, is back in the familiar yellow and gold of JEGS, the company his family started, cultivated and still actively promote. With two races under his belt in the Mission Foods Drag Racing Series season, Jeg Jr., the 69-time Pro Stock national event winner sits eighth in points after a semifinal finish at the sweltering NHRA Arizona Nationals. “On to Pomona! I love Pomona and Southern California, and it looks like we’ll be treated with some cooler temperatures after the scorcher we had in Phoenix. Whatever the weather brings, we’ll be ready to make some laps,” Jeg Jr. said. “I’ve had a lot of success at Pomona. I think one of the headlines after, fortunately, one of my many wins there was ‘Jeggy’s Love Affair with Pomona.’ And really, it’s been just that.” Jeg Jr. has taken home the Wally at Pomona Dragstrip in Pro Stock eight times, fourth most in the category and second most of any active Pro Stock drivers. He has wins at the NHRA Winternationals in 2020, 2000 and 1999. He also won the additional 50th Anniversary Nationals event contested in 2001. “I’ve gotten the chance to be in the winner’s circle for the Winternationals and the fall Finals, I’ve won championships at Pomona and raced in the sportsman series. It’s just an exciting place to be,” Jeg Jr. said. “With LAX right up the road, we have fans from Australia, Hawaii and all over the United States. All there to cheer on NHRA Drag Racing. It feels like a reunion every time we come out to Pomona with all the fans I’ve met over the years. So, I’m excited to get back behind the wheel and see if we can make some more noise.” In addition to regular competition in the NHRA Winternationals, Jeg Jr. and teammate Greg Stanfield, driver of the Janac Brothers Racing Pro Stock entry, will also compete in the Mission Foods #2Fast2Tasty NHRA Challenge during Saturday qualifying. For championship bonus points and a cash prize, each will have a rematch against their NHRA Arizona Nationals semifinal opponents in the first qualifying session of the day before a winner is crowned during the final qualifying session. Jeg Jr. will face nephew Cody Coughlin while G. Stanfield will race reigning world champion Dallas Glenn. With his semifinal appearance in Arizona, G. Stanfield enters the weekend sixth in points as he looks for his third professional win at In-N-Out Burger Pomona Dragstrip. His first victory came during the 2000 NHRA Finals in the no longer contested Pro Stock Truck category while his first Pro Stock victory came in the fall of 2011. Both years he was also runner-up at the Winternationals. Six-time world champion and winningest female in motorsports history Erica Enders and her Johnson’s Horsepowered Garage / Melling Performance / R+L Carriers team lead Elite Motorsports in the Pro Stock points standings. After a semifinal finish and quarterfinal exit to start the season, the two-time In-N-Out Burger Pomona Drag Strip winner sits fifth, a vast improvement from the 12th-place the team was in this time last year. Enders most recently won the Winternationals in 2022. In Top Fuel, motorsports icon Tony Stewart and the R+L Carriers team are holding their own sitting sixth in the points after two consistent weekends. In his first season under the Elite Motorsports banner, Stewart has qualified fifth and had quarterfinal exits at both the NHRA Gatornationals and Arizona Nationals. Stewart, who broke through for his first Top Fuel win in the spring of 2025, is looking to make it to the finals of the Winternationals for the second consecutive year. He came up short to Clay Millican last season. Aaron Stanfield and his JHG / Melling / Janac Brothers team are no strangers to success at Pomona Dragstrip. A. Stanfield most recently picked up victory at the historical venue during the fall NHRA Finals in 2023. The versatile driver had a Winternationals victory at the venue in 2021 against six-time champion Greg Anderson and came up short to teammate Enders at the same event in 2022. Troy Coughlin Jr. racing the reverse black and yellow midnight version of the JEGS Pro Stock car is looking for his first final round appearance at In-N-Out Burger Pomona Dragstrip. While clear performance progress has been made, the five-time Pro Stock winner currently sits 14th in points after a pair of first round exits to start the season. Also searching for not only his first taste of victory in Southern California but in the professional Pro Stock class is Stephen Bell in his 1320 LLC Pro Stock entry. Bell, who will race at least 10 events this season with Elite Motorsports, is 15th in points after qualifying 14th and exiting in the first round at the Gatornationals and Arizona Nationals. Competition at the NHRA Winternationals at In-N-Out Pomona Drag Strip begins with four rounds of qualifying Friday at 1:30 and 4 p.m. and Saturday at 12:30 and 3 p.m. Eliminations are slated for Sunday at 11 a.m. Television coverage of the event will air on FOX Sports 1 (FS1) beginning Sunday with a qualifying show at 11:30 a.m. ET and a Finals show at 6:30 p.m. ET.

Tyler Bohannon had quietly stopped chasing it. Not the wins – Bohannon never stops chasing wins. But the bigger thing. The version of himself he had built his whole life around. The kid who was going to make a living drag racing, chase NHRA Lucas Oil world championships, put his name in the same sentence as Peter Biondo and Dan Fletcher. For the last two years, he had been running a racetrack and pouring every ounce of himself into TB Promotions, the big-money bracket racing operation he and Brian Whitworth have built into one of the most respected brands in the sportsman world. He was good at it. He liked it. And somewhere along the way, the dream of being the guy in the seat had quietly settled into something smaller. “I had lost that the last two years. I’d settled on the fact that this is what life’s going to be,” Bohannon says. “And I was happy with it. It didn’t bother me.” Then Will Holloman called. There was an extra car available. Two weeks on the road, with Vegas at the end of it for the 2026 Moser Spring Fling Million presented by RAD. Bohannon, who had been head-down on TB Promotions media work for months, said yes – the way he has said yes to every opportunity in drag racing he has ever been offered. “If somebody calls me, I’m in,” Bohannon says. “I’ve always been that way. I’ll be that way until the day I die.” What followed was either the worst trip of his career or the best – and depending on which round you ask him about, he might give you a different answer. The truck ran out of diesel pulling into a Texas truck stop. An air compressor line let go in Tucson. He talked enough trash about the East versus West Shootout at Tucson Dragway to write a book, then lost it. By the time the rig rolled into Las Vegas Motor Speedway, the universe was already winding up. Then the racing started, and things got even worse. Three fuel pumps went bad. A starter died. A wheel broke off the front of his car at 140 mph and he somehow kept it between the walls. The car caught on fire on a bye run on Thursday and he bailed out with his helmet still on, waving down the safety crew while his ride coasted backward down the Vegas hill. He never missed a round. Not once. Ten rounds, six days, every nightmare a big-money bracket racer keeps shoved to the back of his trailer, all in one weekend. “That’s the part of big-money bracket racing that I think people don’t understand,” Bohannon says. “We can all go out there and lay down a 10-total package. But can you keep up with this thing three to four, six, seven weeks on the road and keep it running? That’s the hardest part. There’s 50, 60, 70 thousand dollars’ worth of spare parts before you count a motor or a transmission in the trailer. The type of stuff like a three-eighths left-hand-thread heim joint? Ain’t nobody got that. Why did we have it? I don’t know. But we did.” Every time something went sideways, Bohannon stared at the wreckage and told himself the same thing: this is it, there’s no way we’re fixing this. Every time, somebody handed him a wrench, told him to go again, and he went. The fire story he tells with the dry impatience of a man who is genuinely annoyed by the inconvenience. He had crossed the finish line on a bye, shut the car off early, and was coasting through the shutdown when the dash went black. Smoke started coming up through his feet. A battery charging stud had broken loose, the cable had laid against the body, and the whole electrical system was shorting itself into oblivion. He pulled over, took his gloves off so he could shove them into the glovebox, then grabbed them back out – “If it burns to the ground, I’m going to need gloves to get in this other car to make the next round” – then bailed. Still wearing his helmet, he turned around to find his car rolling backward down the racetrack. He ran it down, threw it in park, and started waving the safety guys off the fire extinguishers before they could even get there to douse his hot rod. “Stop, don’t do that. We might be able to put this thing back together. Just don’t do that yet,” he recalled, laughing. Fifteen minutes later, he was in the staging lanes in a borrowed Will Holloman dragster, working out a new dial-in on the fly, racing for the next round. Cory Gulitti had a battery. Johnny Ezell and Holloman were already cutting cables off the original car. Bohannon was in the second car getting fitted, the seat pads moving, his helmet hanging on the cage. “Then Will comes over and goes, ‘I fixed it. You’re good.’ I’m like, dude, I was on fire five minutes ago. There’s no way.” He laughs. “Sure enough, it fired up and I drove off to the lanes in it.” That is the kind of weekend that wins you a million dollars or sends you home in pieces. Bohannon does not really believe in luck the way other people do, but he will tell you that his luck on this trip was almost suspiciously well-timed. The fire happened at the finish line. The wheel broke off at the finish line. The fuel pump went out unloading the car at 7:15 in the morning. Every disaster waited politely until it could not actually cost him a round. The disasters brought him through a field that would intimidate anyone with a steering wheel and a brain. By the time he got to the back half of the ladder, he was staring across the lanes at murderer’s row. “I’ve always drove that way,” he says. “They always say you drive to win, not scared to lose. But I’ve always worked the opposite. Like, if I’m going to prove something, I can’t lose. If I’m going to prove this, you do have to go win. But I’m not always necessarily been scared to lose in a sense of like, losing is fine for me at this point. But if you lose, you’re not proving your point. I want to prove my point. Prove that I belong in this conversation.” He kept proving his point. Past the locals. Past the Gary and Troy Williamses and the Pete Biondos. Past the names that have spent twenty-five years making other people’s lives miserable on the bottom bulb. He went to the final against Greg Brotherton with a borrowed car, a body full of adrenaline, and a banker back home in Tennessee waiting on a phone call. The stripe was .0002. Two ten-thousandths of a second. The kind of margin where the loser is still struggling to believe the win light didn’t come on his in his lane some three days later. “It’s hard to win a single round at these races, let alone 10 rounds of drag racing,” Bohannon says. “And you’re not racing just some local bracket racers, you’re pulling up beside some absolutely iconic drag racers.” This is Bohannon’s second million-dollar drag racing victory. The first came in November 2021 at Capital City Motorsports Park, where he became the second winner of the Great American Guaranteed Million and arrived at his hometown bank the next morning with a check his teller had to physically guarantee for him because he had bills due in 48 hours and three dollars and seventy-seven cents in his account. It was a victory that put him on the map in a way nothing in his career ever had. This second one means something different to him. He is a man who has spent a lifetime checking boxes: NHRA Stock Eliminator racer, son of an NHRA racer, grandson of an NHRA racer, third generation, redheaded, and Tennessee-stubborn. Now he’s joined a list of seven men who have won the million more than once. “Kenny Underwood, Luke Bogacki, Kevin Brannon, Gary Williams, Jeff Verde,” Bohannon recites. “And I think there’s one more. But that’s something that says I’m good at this. That’s what I’ve chased my entire life – to say that I’m a good drag racer.” Here is the part nobody saw coming. Tyler Bohannon won the second million, walked out of Las Vegas Motor Speedway with a check he is still trying to comprehend, and instead of getting comfortable, he found something he thought he had buried. He wants more. “This is like a new beginning, and I’m pumped,” he says. “I want to go chase a world championship. I want to chase every opportunity that comes to me in drag racing and kind of get back to just riding the wave and seeing where it goes.” He is one of a few guys on planet earth, by his own count, who would still trade either of those million-dollar wins for an NHRA Lucas Oil world championship. The kid who grew up worshipping Biondo and Dan Fletcher is not done worshipping them. He just had to remember why. “NHRA racing will always be home for me,” he says. “It’s hard to sit here and say that, because bracket racing has truly changed my life. Not only on the racetrack, but off the racetrack. I’ve only ever wanted to make a living drag racing. There’s what, a hundred people out there that actually get in a race car and make a living? So, for me, it’s always been about figuring that out – how am I going to be able to do that? Drag race for a living? And bracket racing gave me TB Promotions. Bracket racing gave me some of my biggest career achievements. It gave me a place to spotlight me, to give them that personality.” Bracket racing gave Tyler Bohannon back to himself. Now the third-generation kid with the southern drawl, the broken wheel, the borrowed car, and the fire in the dash is loose again. He is going to St. Louis next for a Lucas Oil divisional. He has the next round of TB Promotions media projects rolling. There is talk – and Drag Illustrated is happy to push that talk forward – of a Lil Gangstas ride at the next DI Winter Series, because it is now genuinely impossible to argue that Tyler Bohannon belongs in any room he has not yet walked into. The bank in Tennessee is going to need to make some space. It is no fluke. It is no flash. It is no accident. It is, finally, exactly who he always thought he was. This story was originally published on April 9, 2026. The post No Fluke: How Tyler Bohannon Spent Two Weeks in Hell and Came Home a Spring Fling Million Winner first appeared on Drag Illustrated.

Scouting America and AB Motorsports announced today a season-long partnership for the 2026 NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series season, creating new STEM-centered opportunities for Scouts at select national events. Scouting America has joined forces with four-time NHRA Top Fuel world champion and team owner Antron Brown to provide hands-on learning experiences that connect Scouting’s values with the real-world science, technology, engineering, and teamwork behind championship drag racing. Serving nearly one million youth nationwide, Scouting America prepares young people for lives of impact and purpose through leadership development and outdoor education rooted in the Scout Oath and Law. “Our new partnership with AB Motorsports represents an exciting opportunity to connect the spirit of Scouting with the innovation, teamwork, and determination that define motorsports,” said Roger Krone, president & CEO of Scouting America. “Whether it’s learning how to solve problems under pressure, working effectively as a team, or pushing themselves to reach new goals, AB Motorsports embodies the very qualities we strive to cultivate in every young person who wears the Scout uniform. Together, we’ll inspire young people to aim higher, work harder, and discover their potential, on the track, in their communities, and throughout their lives.” With support from World Wide Technology, the initiative will emphasize STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) education, helping Scouts see firsthand how STEM disciplines power one of the fastest and most technologically advanced sports in the world. David L. Steward, Founder and Chairman of World Wide Technology, said, “We are thrilled to sponsor Antron Brown and Scouting America. As a world-class NHRA competitor, Antron will help us drive excitement for both Top Fuel racing and the science and engineering Scouts will learn.” At select NHRA national events, Scouts will be invited to participate in interactive STEM activations, including engineering-focused demonstrations, team-building challenges, and hands-on learning experiences, before stepping into Brown’s pit area to see how precision, data, and preparation translate directly to performance on race day. Additional youth-focused activities, including entry-level mechanical design and competition-based learning experiences, are being explored throughout the season. For Brown, the partnership aligns directly with his long-standing commitment to mentorship and youth development. “This is bigger than racing,” Brown said. “This sport has given me so much, and I’ve always believed it’s important to give that back to the next generation. When young people walk through our pit and see how much math, engineering, technology, and teamwork goes into what we do, it opens their eyes. If we can help them connect what they’re learning in school to real careers and real opportunities, that’s a win far beyond the race track. It’s about showing them what’s possible and helping them believe they can chase big dreams in any field they choose. “It all starts with relationships,” Brown added. “Curtis (Francois, World Wide Technology Raceway Owner and CEO) and Chris (Blair, World Wide Technology Raceway Executive Vice President and General Manager) introduced me to David (Steward) years ago, and we built a connection based on trust and a shared commitment to making an impact. That’s what makes partnerships like this possible.” NHRA’s longstanding commitment to youth engagement and education makes the partnership a natural fit. Through its NHRA Youth & Education Services (YES) Program, the organization has connected students nationwide to STEM-based learning experiences at the race track for more than three decades. NHRA President Glen Cromwell praised the collaboration. “NHRA is proud to support the collaboration between Scouting America and four-time Top Fuel champion Antron Brown,” NHRA President Glen Cromwell said. “NHRA has always been committed to engaging young people by utilizing real-world applications of science, technology, engineering and math. Partnerships like this, connecting Antron and Scouting America, only help inspire the next generation of innovators and problem-solvers, and we’re thrilled to see this partnership take place at NHRA events across the country.” The Scouting America and AB Motorsports partnership will officially kick off at the Lucas Oil NHRA Winternationals at In-N-Out Burger Pomona Dragstrip in Pomona, California, April 9-12, 2026. Brown will begin to welcome Scouts through the YES Program at the NHRA 4-Wide Nationals at zMax Dragway in Charlotte, North Carolina, April 23-26.

In a couple of short months, Overland Expo PNW returns to beautiful Redmond, Oregon. The Pacific Northwest is home to countless miles of awesome overland routes that provide excellent opportunities for exploration and camping, no matter what kind of vehicle you choose for your overland journey. At Overland Expo PNW, you can check out the latest and greatest gear from 300+ vendors, learn from world-class instructors, and, of course, check out the cool rigs all across the event all weekend long. If you want to get the most out of the weekend, camping on site is the way to do it. Your basecamp amongst your fellow overlanders is a great way to stay close to all of the action all weekend long. It’s no secret that each Overland Expo is jam-packed from sunup to sundown and beyond. Camping on site allows you to soak it all in at your own pace without worrying about getting in and out of the venue. As far as event camping goes, it’s tough to beat Overland Expo PNW’s festival camping in a grassy field with the beautiful snow-capped mountain framing your view to the west. The exhibitors and education areas open bright and early at 9 AM on June 26-28, and campers are the first there to make the most of the day. Or you can take it easy and enjoy a slow morning in camp, chatting with your neighbors, and planning your must-see list for the day. Once the sun goes down, the exhibitors have called it a day, and the education is wrapped up, there’s still plenty to see at Overland Expo. On Friday and Saturday nights, the Oasis Bar and Food Court kicks off Happy Hour, where you can grab a cold drink from PFRIEM Beer. Afterward, on Friday, head to the Overland Expo Film Festival. Saturday morning, join the Women Who Wander Networking Event sponsored by MAXXIS Tires, and later in the day, after Saturday’s Happy Hour, get your raffle tickets ready for the Overland Expo Foundation Charity Raffle. Photo by Overland Expo Photo by Overland Expo Camping at Overland Expo PNW also gives you access to the world-class instructors leading the Trail Course Experience and the Overland Expo Training curriculum. Both are great ways to up your capability and skill sets before heading out on the trail. The Trail Course Experience is a great way to get some training without taking too much time away from parts of the event, but you’ll still leave with some new skills and a better idea of your vehicle’s capability. The Overland Expo Training sponsored by ComeUp USA program is designed to be an immersive and customized experience for those looking for the highest class of hands-on overlanding training that you can get. Multiple sessions are available throughout the weekend, but don’t delay getting tickets. Spots are filling up fast. Read on to learn more about training opportunities that are exclusive to Overland Expo PNW, and a huge plus to camping onsite. READ MORE: Level Up with Overland Expo Training at PNW Last, but certainly not least, camping at the event is a great way to meet fellow overlanders from near and far. Walking through the campground, you always hear great conversations and laughter as people check out rigs, discuss modifications and accessories, and make new friendships that sometimes lead to epic journeys. The community is the best part of any Overland Expo, and camping on site puts you right in the middle of it. Camping passes are limited, so don’t miss out. Grab your tickets, tag on that Overland Expo Training session, and keep an eye out for future content on the deals, classes, instructors, and more that you can expect at Overland Expo PNW 2026.

Quick Take: The Peak Design Roller Pro is a unique take on the classic roller bag that leverages Peak Design’s broad range of packing cubes, camera cubes, and accessory bags which makes it a great fit for those with a broad range of travel needs. It is a pleasure to use, has held up well to abuse, and has a contemporary, minimalist aesthetic that stands out in a sea of competitors. So…it turns out I have a bit of a problem with collecting travel and adventure-oriented bags. By last count, I had 37 of them, comprising duffels, totes, roller bags, suit carriers, laptop slings, laptop backpacks, camera bags, hiking bags, backpacking bags, and travel backpacks. They take up a ton of space, I’ve spent a king’s ransom on them over the years, and it is quite inconvenient to juggle gear between bags when I need to go somewhere. As an antidote, I did what any rational person would do and got another bag. I found Peak Design a couple of years ago when some of my photography friends started showing up with their gear to photo outings. I’ve picked up a couple of their smaller organizational bags since. I’m especially a big fan of their Tech Pouch, which I have been carrying daily for a number of years now. When they announced a Kickstarter for a new roller bag last year, I thought it just might be half of a two-bag strategy that could replace 90% of my “collection” and free up some much-needed storage space. Watching their release video and the stream of pre-order influencer videos that followed, I was intrigued by the unique look of it, the blank slate redesign of the ubiquitous roller bag, their claim of designing 154 custom parts for the luggage (and only using one off the shelf part in the process), and its integration into their packing cube and camera cube system that works across their varied and growing collection of travel bags. So here I am with the Roller Pro, a couple of their packing cubes, and two of their camera cubes added to the collection. Since getting the bag about six months ago, I’ve used it for more than 100 nights of travel encompassing about two dozen domestic and international flights, road trips, business travel, family trips, and yes, overlanding. Aside from my ever-present laptop backpack and an occasional suit carrier, this is the only piece of luggage I’ve allowed myself to use in that time. Exterior The Roller Pro is built around a polycarbonate interior shell that gives it most of the rigidity and protection of a hardshell design, but is wrapped in a slightly padded, proprietary fabric that provides some give to the bag that allows it to be compressed slightly before being limited by its rigid shell. I’ve long appreciated the durability benefits of hard-sided luggage, but always lamented how quickly they get beaten up by travel, their frequent lack of expansion, and their total inability to be compressed when they don’t quite fit where they need to go. This hybrid design addresses these shortcomings while still offering protection for its contents. This may not be too important when the only thing inside is your shorts and t-shirts for a summer trip, but it becomes critically important when traveling with expensive camera gear or fragile tech we’ve all been increasingly bringing with us. The exterior shell is a proprietary take on a 500D nylon material Peak Design has dubbed Versa Shell. Available in black, “sage” green, and “eclipse” (a shade of maroon), the material has held up very well to a lot of travel and some rather notable abuse at the hands of a well-known budget airline. The black colorway I opted for tends to pick up dirt and other marks over the course of a long trip, but a quick wipe down with a damp towel sets it back to looking new. In addition to the Versa Shell, Peak Design also chose to use their own proprietary zippers, which they call UltraZips. I was initially worried about their deviation from the gold-standard YK hardware used nearly universally in higher-end gear. Zippers are the element that ultimately makes or breaks a bag – quite literally. Thankfully, the UltraZips have been flawless so far. They move very smoothly and haven’t shown any sign of coming up short of the YK alternative. Combined with the waterproof exterior material, the zippers have managed to keep everything dry inside, even during a torrential downpour. Perhaps the most visually notable component of the bag is the telescoping trolley handle. Instead of the usual aluminum wobble wands we are all used to, the bag’s two extending arms are made of single pieces of 3K carbon fiber that are lightweight, rigid, and only 7mm thick. They ride within a machined aluminum chassis that ensures smooth extension and retraction and exudes that oh-my-gosh-this-is-so-much-better-than-I’m-used-to thing that pervades much of the rest of the design. The handle itself is nicely sculpted, albeit made of ABS, and has an anodized aluminum button for adjusting the extension of the handle. At six feet tall, I found the taller 100cm extension about perfect. Someone notably taller may find the upper limit a little low. One of the advantages of the carbon fiber trolley extensions is that they take up very little room inside the suitcase, creating a nearly flat interior and maximizing interior space. The Peak Design Roller Pro after a very dusty trip to the desert The Roller Pro comes with grab handles on all four sides – something that should be mandatory on travel bags. No matter how you’ve slid the thing into the overhead bin, between gear in the truck, or crammed it into the closet, there is always a handle present. Why doesn’t everyone do this with their bags? I don’t know. The handles are comfortably wide without bulking up the exterior, lying flat to the bag when not in use. Around the exterior are a series of small loops that are flexible and low-profile lashing points for anything that needs to be attached to the exterior, whether it’s a jacket or a tripod. There are twelve in total, six arrayed around either side of the main compartment’s zipper. These loops are made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, the same material most soft shackles used for vehicle recovery are made from, so they aren’t going anywhere. I only used them a handful of times, but they were great to have when I needed them. Despite all the other unique design elements on the Roller Pro, my favorite part of the bag is the wheels. Peak Design paired oversized, 60mm wheels at all four corners, which makes traversing uneven pavement a much smoother experience than what I’m used to. The real magic, though, is whatever they’ve done with the internals. They are near frictionless and make the bag an absolute pleasure to use. You’ll find yourself giving it a little push and seeing just how far it will roll alongside you before it needs another nudge – it’s always farther than you’d expect. My least favorite part of the bag is also the wheels. Those wheels and the dark magic from which they were forged give the bag a tendency to start rolling on its own when it’s on the slightest incline. It’s a quirk when the bag rolls across an old hotel room floor. It’s maddening when you find yourself chasing it down the street into traffic after a momentary distraction. You have to keep an eye on this bag like it’s a toddler that just chased their Halloween candy with four shots of espresso – it’s going to start moving at any second. READ MORE: Travoca Rigel 35DZ Review: Dual-Zone Flexibility for the Modern Overlander Interior Small and medium packing cubes leave plenty of space for other necessities A medium packing cube paired with a small camera cube provides a flexible travel setup A small camera cube, a small packing cube, a medium packing cube and the small PD wash bag provide a complete travel solution The interior is as thoughtfully redesigned as the exterior. Rather than opening like a book, which doubles the size of the bag when open, Peak Design chose to go a different direction with this, too. The opening to the bag has the hinges down near the wheels, with the top of the unit opening like a drawbridge. Opened to about ninety degrees, you can get full access to the interior as well as the organizational panel on the inside face of the door without taking up any additional space. This is a welcome feature in a cramped hotel room, rooftop tent, or while trying to access the bag in the back of a vehicle. The interior is roomy for a rolling bag, with the absence of the usual trolley extension tubes taking up valuable and inconveniently shaped space at the bottom. Though present, the molding around the slim carbon fiber substitutions is slight. The interior is lined with a felt material reminiscent of an automotive headliner and is a welcome upgrade from the typical interior liners found in these types of bags. There are six cord loops festooned around the perimeter that allow you to attach camera cubes to the interior or serve as tie-down points. There is also an elastic cord that can act as a compression lashing and can be cinched down to accommodate the thickness of what’s packed inside. The interior face of the “drawbridge” has four small, zippered organization pockets that, while useful, I found myself rarely using. Thankfully, the organization panel can be zipped down and stowed to open up additional room in the interior, helpful when overpacking or needing to cram a jacket or other bulky clothing in the bag. Hidden behind the panel are two secret pockets – one for hiding an AirTag-type tracker and another for storing a passport or two out of sight. Neither is obvious unless you know to look for them. This space behind the organizational panel is shared with the laptop and easy-access pockets accessed from the exterior. The laptop compartment is well protected and holds up to a 16-inch laptop suspended in the bag. Behind the same exterior zip is a small, sectioned EDC pocket for stashing small items such as keys, chargers, and the like. Peak Design built a small magnet into the flap separating the two that snaps to the laptop side of the compartment and keeps your laptop from sliding out if you happen to drop the drawbridge while the bag is vertical. Thankfully, I never had to test that in real life. Final Thoughts You may be saying to yourself, that’s all great, but why are we talking about a roller bag on an overlanding-centered site? The truth is, most of us do a lot of traveling beyond just overlanding. I regularly travel for business, take family vacations, visit family out of town, head out on short weekend excursions, do photography trips, and yes, overland. One versatile bag that easily adapts to all these styles of travel makes packing for any kind of trip a simple task. Going on an extended trip, I grab my small packing cube and two medium packing cubes for all my clothes. For a trip, I want to bring a camera, or two, so I can omit the small packing cube and drop in a pre-packed small camera cube that fits two mirrorless bodies and a couple of lenses. If I’m going on a photography-centered trip (or god-forbid helping photograph a wedding), I can drop in the holds-everything-but-the-kitchen-sink XL camera cube, and the entire Roller Pro becomes an enormous camera case. This versatility extends well to overland travel, where I can easily adapt its interior to the trip’s needs. Additionally, I really appreciate the high packing efficiency of a rectangular bag when going out. Nearly all of my overlanding gear has a rectangular form, and I pack the back of the truck like I’m playing Tetris – keeping everything on a single layer for first order retrievability and trying to interlock the shapes so nothing moves. The unique way the bag opens makes it easy to get to the contents in a cramped tent or in the back of an SUV, as long as you have a little overhead space for the drawbridge to open. Is it the ne plus ultra for overlanding-only travel? No, probably not. I will say that it is the best, most versatile travel bag I’ve owned. At $599, this bag isn’t cheap, but it is priced well with the higher-end bags it competes with. If you travel a lot, find yourself needing both a photography bag and a travel bag, or just appreciate thoughtfully designed and well-made gear, this bag is well worth it. Pair it with some of Peak Design’s packing cubes and camera cubes (and perhaps some of their other travel organization gear), and you have a single system that can meet the vast majority of your travel needs for quite some time.
