THE WES BUCK SHOW – EPISODE 430
“DOUBLE TROUBLE & THE NEXT BIG THING”

SOME WEEKENDS YOU WIN.

SOME WEEKENDS YOUR WHOLE TEAM WINS.

AND THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED.

This week on The Wes Buck Show, we’re talking about one of the coolest storylines in NHRA this season, and we’ve got the people who lived it.

First up, Ron Capps and Maddi Gordon, teammates who pulled off an incredible double-up at the Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Nationals in Norwalk, Ohio. Ron is a straight-up legend. Champion. Future Hall of Famer. The guy has forgotten more about drag racing than most people will ever know.

And then there’s Maddi.

If you’ve watched her interviews after a run, you know exactly what we’re talking about. The excitement. The passion. The raw emotion. It’s genuine, it’s contagious, and it’s exactly the kind of energy this sport needs. Fresh off her first career Top Fuel victory, she’s quickly becoming one of the brightest young stars in NHRA. We’re gonna talk about the huge weekend, sharing the winner’s circle with her teammate, and where this ride is headed.

Then we shift gears to the world of Pro Mod.

Peter Norton, the DI Winter Series champion, joins us after making another big move. He’s teamed up with Paige Coughlin, giving one of drag racing’s most recognizable last names the opportunity to climb behind the wheel of a Pro Mod.

Paige comes from one of the most respected families in motorsports, and now she’s getting her shot in one of the wildest classes on the planet. We’ll talk about how it all came together, what the future looks like, and why this is such a cool opportunity for everyone involved.

Champions.

Legends.

Future stars.

This one has everything.

LET’S GOOOOO!

Each week on The Wes Buck Show, Wes Buck, JT “Murder T” Hudson, and Mike Carpenter bring their unique insights and analysis to the most electrifying moments and storylines from a packed weekend of drag racing.
