Dragzine's Hammer Of The Month for May goes to the Kalitta Motorsports Top Fuel teams. These teams have OWNED NHRA Top Fuel racing this season. The stats speak for themselves and show just how hard these guys have hammered the competition.

Ron Capps has been named the 2026 honoree of Bristol Dragway’s Legends of Thunder Valley Hall of Fame!

The winningest driver in Thunder Valley history with eight Funny Car victories, Capps becomes the Hall’s 24th inductee and just the third active participant to receive the honor. The current Funny Car points leader returns to Bristol this weekend as the defending event champion and a four-time world title hopeful.

These three unique rides at Mickey Thompson Turn & Burn proved there’s no single formula for drag-and-drive success. From Rick Russell’s twin-turbo 1979 Dodge Lil’ Red Express to Jake Marshall’s blown 1966 Pontiac GTO gasser and Jeremy Bonnett’s “Last Penny” 1933 Willys, the event showcased creativity, horsepower, and the diverse machines that make drag-and-drive racing unlike anything else.
