THE WES BUCK SHOW – EPISODE 429
“WALLYS, WILD RIDES, AND A THOUSAND AUTOGRAPHS”

SOME WEEKS YOU GET A WINNER.

SOME WEEKS YOU GET A GOOD STORY.

THIS WEEK? WE GOT BOTH. AND THEN SOME.

This week on The Wes Buck Show, we’re diving headfirst into one of those episodes that reminds you why drag racing is the greatest reality show on earth.

First up, we’ve got Antron Brown fresh off another Top Fuel victory in NHRA competition. The man just keeps finding ways to win. Champion. Team owner. Wheel man. Motivator. And one of the most passionate people you’ll ever meet in motorsports.

You give Antron a microphone and a Wally, and magic usually follows.

Then we’ve got one of the wildest stories of the season.

Jason Collins and Scott Tidwell join us after an absolutely unbelievable weekend in NHRA Pro Mod competition. What started as a potential disaster when the steering wheel came off during the burnout somehow turned into a trip to the winner’s circle.

Most teams would’ve packed up.

These guys came back, made the run, survived the chaos, and ended up winning the whole dang race.

You couldn’t script it any better if you tried.

And then we’ve got Elon Werner, the man behind the 1,000 Round Club.

If you’re a drag racing fan, you’ve probably seen the cards. The autographs. The history being preserved one signature at a time.

Elon recently spent time with John Force, collecting signatures for a thousand-card run, and he’s preparing to do the same with Greg Anderson. We’re gonna talk about the project, the stories behind it, and why preserving the legends of this sport matters.

Big wins.

Crazy stories.

Drag racing history.
