Whether she\u2019s behind the microphone with FloRacing or in the middle of the action at the biggest races in the country, Courtney has become one of the most recognizable voices in drag racing. We\u2019ll preview one of the most legendary events in the sport and talk about everything happening this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Then we\u2019ve got Clay Millican, one of the most popular drivers in NHRA Top Fuel history. Clay is headed to the legendary 49th Annual Cornwell Tools Night Under Fire at Summit Motorsports Park, where he\u2019ll be one of four Top Fuel stars battling for the King of Nitro crown. This isn\u2019t an NHRA national event, it\u2019s one of the biggest standalone drag racing spectacles in the world, featuring Top Fuel, Nitro Funny Cars, jet cars, wheelstanders, fireworks, and enough horsepower to shake the state of Ohio.

No guessing.<\/p>\n<p>Just the story from someone who was in the room.<\/p>\n<p>This is one of those episodes where everybody is going to be talking.<\/p>\n<p>Big guests. Big stories.
