Ida Zetterstrom: Getting a good, safe tune-up is crucial, especially for lower-budget teams. Experienced racers can help find that baseline, ensuring parts won't break and the car won't blow up. It's about smart assembly and using the right knowledge. #RacingTips #Mechanics

🏁 Tommy Johnson Jr. spent more than three decades behind the wheel, winning races across six countries and becoming one of drag racing's most respected drivers.

Today, he's behind a microphone with IHRA, but don't mistake that for retirement. Johnson admits he misses racing "on a scale of 1 to 10, I'm at a 12," and he's still chasing one last accomplishment before he's done.

From Funny Car wins to broadcast booths, TJ reflects on a career that's taken him around the world — and why he believes drag racing's future is brighter with more opportunities for everyone.

Nice or Not?

This ‘68 Camaro SS just rolled up looking like it ate a bottle of blue raspberry and bench-pressed a Mustang.

Too clean or what? 😏

A strong number for the @NHRA. As the @goracemir broadcast followed IndyCar on FOX, which drew 1.1 million viewers. A great success for our first FOX show of the year, and we also had our fourth sellout day of the season through seven events.
