Troy Coughlin Jr. on the cover

The most  coveted item to a drag racer is the Wally trophy presented to the 
winner of each  national and divisional event. Running a close second to 
accolades drag racers  crave is a cover shot on National DRAGSTER, the 
longtime magazine of the  NHRA.

Third-generation driver Troy Coughlin Jr. can now say he's enjoyed  both as 
the son of Pro Street champion Troy Coughlin and grandson of former Top  
Fuel driver and JEGS Automotive founder Jeg Coughlin Sr. continues to revel in 
 his first national event victory at the ninth annual Las Vegas NHRA  
Nationals.

T.J. claimed his Wally on Nov. 2 at the top end of The Strip  at Las Vegas 
Motor Speedway. The cover shot came next when National DRAGSTER  Managing 
Editor Phil Burgess selected a photo of T.J. doing a smoky burnout in  his 
JEGS.com Super Comp dragster at the starting line for the cover of the Nov.  
20th issue. Under the headline "Attaboy, Troy! Coughlin Jr. continues families 
 winning legacy with first victory," T.J.'s win is now memorialized  
forever.
