THE WES BUCK SHOW – EPISODE 432
“NITRO, NO PREP, AND THE FUTURE OF DRAG RACING”

SOME WEEKS ARE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED.

SOME WEEKS ARE ABOUT WHAT’S COMING NEXT.

THIS WEEK? WE’VE GOT A LITTLE OF BOTH.

This week on The Wes Buck Show, we’ve got a lineup that covers everything from Top Fuel to Pro Mod to preserving the history of the sport.

First up, Jasmine Salinas joins us from the world of NHRA Top Fuel. Jasmine and the Scrappers Racing team have been grinding, piecing together a limited schedule while chasing the dream of running full time. She never lost the belief, never stopped working, and now she’s back out there taking swings against the best in the world. We’re gonna talk about the season, the grind behind the scenes, and what’s next for one of the toughest racers in the pits.

Then we’ve got Keith Haney, racer, promoter, and the man behind the Midwest Drag Racing Series, as we get set for Night of Fire at legendary US 131 Motorsports Park. If you’ve ever been to US 131, you know that place comes alive under the lights. We’ll break down one of the biggest weekends of the season, the state of Pro Mod, and everything happening in one of the hottest doorslammer series in the country.

And rounding things out is Elon Werner, the man behind the 1,000 Round Win Club. He’s been preserving some of the biggest moments in NHRA history, bringing legends like John Force and Greg Anderson together through one-of-a-kind collectibles and celebrating milestones that deserve to live forever. We’ll catch up on what he’s building next and why this project has become so special to racers and fans alike.
