INSIDE THE RETURN OF NO PREP KINGS
“ I’ m honored to grace the cover for the third time in my career, each time for completely different, yet relative, drag racing reasons, from my debut in Pro Mod in 2011, to my first Top Fuel win in 2016, and now alongside my better half as we discuss with DI what life is like in love, licensing, and all things motorsports in between.”
