Tony Stewart Set to Rewrite History at zMAX Dragway

In a groundbreaking turn of events, Tony Stewart, the recent victor in the NHRA’s Top Fuel category, stands on the brink of etching his name in the annals of racing history once more by potentially clinching the win at the monumental 1,000th Top Fuel race in NHRA history. The stage is set for this electrifying moment at the highly anticipated American Rebel Light NHRA 4-Wide Nationals set to unfold at the iconic zMAX Dragway this weekend.

Having soared to triumph at the NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series event in Las Vegas, Tony Stewart elevated his legendary status with his maiden Top Fuel victory. A seasoned racer with a storied career spanning various racing disciplines, Stewart’s upcoming opportunity to secure another milestone at Charlotte’s 1,000th Top Fuel race is nothing short of historic.

The 1,000th Top Fuel race will be a spectacle like no other, featuring the signature four-wide racing format, a nod to the inaugural Top Fuel race held 62 years ago at the 1963 NHRA Winternationals where the iconic Don Garlits emerged victorious. Now, it is Tony Stewart’s turn to step into the limelight and potentially claim a significant win at the famed zMAX Dragway, piloting his formidable 12,000-horsepower Dodge//SRT Direct Connection dragster.

Expressing his excitement for the upcoming event, Stewart remarked, “To go back to Charlotte, where I have deep-rooted racing history, as the previous race winner in Las Vegas, is going to be a great feeling.” With the gravity of the occasion not lost on him, Stewart acknowledged the honor of participating in the 1,000th Top Fuel race and the upcoming NHRA 75th-anniversary celebrations next year.

As anticipation mounts for the American Rebel Light NHRA 4-Wide Nationals, fans and experts alike speculate on Stewart’s chances of emerging victorious once more. With a proven track record in the high-octane world of four-wide racing, Stewart remains unfazed by the intense competition posed by elite racers like Antron Brown, Brittany Force, and reigning world champion Shawn Langdon.

Amidst the deafening roar of nearly 50,000-horsepower machines hurtling down four lanes simultaneously, Stewart’s comfort and prowess in the four-wide setup have positioned him as a formidable contender for the win. Following his recent success in Las Vegas, Stewart has surged to second place in the points standings, signaling a resurgence in form for his team at a pivotal juncture in the season.

With the allure of back-to-back victories in the air, Stewart exudes confidence in his ability to navigate the chaos of four-wide racing, emphasizing his adeptness at maintaining focus amidst the heightened intensity of staging. Looking ahead to the upcoming races in Charlotte, Stewart expressed his fondness for the unique challenge presented by four-wide racing and his eagerness to partake in the exhilarating spectacle.

Adding to the excitement surrounding the 1,000th Top Fuel race, a special autograph session featuring every 100th winner in Top Fuel history, including luminaries like Don Garlits, is scheduled to take place at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, offering fans a rare opportunity to engage with these racing legends and obtain exclusive memorabilia.

As the stage is set for a historic showdown at zMAX Dragway, all eyes are on Tony Stewart as he aims to rewrite the record books and etch his name in the hallowed halls of NHRA history.
