THE WES BUCK SHOW – EPISODE 401
“LEGENDS, WOODS, AND WINNERS”

IT’S FUNNY CARS AND FAST TALK.
STREET RACING AND STRAIGHT SHOOTIN’.
WE’RE LOCKED IN FOR ANOTHER ONE.

This week on The Wes Buck Show, we’re welcoming a true icon in the sport — Cruz Pedregon. The Snap-on backed NHRA Funny Car legend found his way back to the top this weekend with a big win that had the pits buzzing. Been there, done that, and still stackin’ W’s like it’s 1998. We’re talkin’ shop with one of the baddest to ever do it.

Then we’re pivoting from the big show to the backwoods as Jeff Thomas joins us ahead of his wild and rowdy War in the Woods event. One of the most anticipated grudge races on the map, it’s part street, part jungle, part organized chaos — and Jeff is smack in the middle of it all.

It’s legends and outlaws.
Nitro and no-prep.
And it’s all goin’ down right here.

Wes Buck, JT “Murder T” Hudson, and Mike Carpenter are in the saddle and ready to ride.

DON’T MISS IT. LET’S GOOOOO.
