Another double-down weekend for Jeggie (NHRA/JEGS)
Another double-down weekend for Jeggie
Drag racing superstar Jeg Coughlin Jr. is best known for the four Pro
Stock titles and 49 national event wins he's amassed in his JEGS.com Chevrolet
Cobalt, but its no secret the 39-year-old from Columbus, Ohio, loves to
race in the sportsman classes.
This weekend at Gateway International Raceway, Coughlin will once again
pull double-duty, adding a foray into Top Dragster to his Pro Stock
aspirations.
Coughlin will be piloting his oldest brother John's championship-winning
Top Dragster entry at Gateway and is expected to challenge for the trophy.
The last time he competed in the class was in 2006 when he won the JEGS
Cajun SPORTSnationals at No Problem Raceway in Belle Rose, La. He also won the
last time he drove one of John's cars, which was in 2003 when he took home
the Super Stock Wally at St. Louis.
