Competition Plus Announces New Time, Updated Format for ‘Power Hour’

CompetitionPlus.com has been a leader in online motorsports journalism for over 25 years. Through web stories, commentaries, longform videos and podcasts the media organization founded by Bobby Bennett has been the go-to resource for drag racing fans around the world. For 2026 the wildly popular Power Hour show hosted by Lee Craft and Dujunnea Bland will move to a 5:30 p.m. ET time slot starting this Tuesday, January 13, offering live commentary and guest interviews weekly throughout the season.

“Power Hour is a staple for drag racing interviews and news and we wanted to move to an even better time slot,” said Bobby Bennett, CompetitionPlus.com Founder. “Lee and Dujunnea bring great perspectives and opinions for all forms of drag racing.”

Craft, who operates the Monday Morning Racer media outlet, has been directly in the sport of drag racing as media since 2019. Over that time he has been involved with social media for Top Fuel teams, pit reporting for racing series, race announcing, camera operating, streaming, and marketing efforts with a variety of brands and series.

Bland has 13 years of experience in sports media and he has established himself as a versatile reporter, analyst, and podcast host, covering everything from the NFL to NHRA drag racing. He currently serves as the Senior NFL/Jaguars Insider and Director of Content for SportsJourney.com, while also hosting The NotBland Show, a live YouTube program delivering expert insight and exclusive interviews.

Power Hour will continue to produce new shows throughout the drag racing season. Shows will be broadcast live on the CompetitionPlus.com social media channels. For additional information visit www.competitionplus.com.
