On this revealing episode of the NHRA Insider podcast, host Brian Lohnes is joined by Antron Brown and Ron Capps. 

Brown, a Top Fuel winner three times already this season, talks about his success in Sonoma, their building of a successful program in 2024, and why his team always seems to be in fighting form at this time of the year. 

Brown talks about many aspects of his team, his approach, the future expansion he has his eyes on, and even some fun he is planning on having this winter in the Pro Mod ranks. It's a high-energy conversation with a true newsmaker in the sport. 

Capps explains a lot of the behind-the-scenes work that his team had to do following their massive explosion in Seattle, how they have been working, why the 2022 car they ran in Sonoma put them a bit behind the other more modern chassis they were racing, and how he views this time of the year in relation to the impending Countdown to the Championship. 

The most stunning part of the Capps conversation is his revelation that the team will be adding a Top Fuel dragster for 2026, and he has a partner and a driver lined up already. Hear him tell the story in his own words. 

Big stuff happening here, and these guys are driving it!
