I’m so sad for the folks in Lake Village, Indiana. I’ve been there many times and it’s the nicest small town. Nearly half of it got wiped off the map earlier this week by a tornado, killing an elderly couple. The path was nearly 70 miles. Went out there yesterday and the devastation is unreal. If you see a GoFundMe or similar, folks could use the help, even if it’s just a few bucks. If you were in those folks shoes, I’m sure you’d appreciate the help.

For months, the question lingered across drag racing — who becomes the face of NHRA when John Force is no longer the sport’s center of gravity? In Gainesville, a rookie didn’t just win rounds. She changed the conversation. She connected with fans, energized the media, and reminded the sport what authenticity looks like. NHRA didn’t appoint its next face. One driver stepped forward and took the moment. 👉 competitionplus.com/bobby-bennett-… #NHRA #DragRacing #TopFuel #MaddiGordon #JohnForce #RonCapps #DonPrudhomme #Gatornationals #NHRA75 #NitroRacing #WomenInMotorsports #NHRAFuture #DragRacingLife #NitroNation #MotorsportsCommentary #NextGenNitro #PEAKSquad
