Drag racing brothers John and Mike Coughlin were honored Saturday for the Division 3 championships they earned in 2009. John won his second Top Dragster title of the last three years in his JEGS.com Dragster, while younger sibling Mike took home his second Top Sportsman championship in his JEGS.com Chevrolet.
NHRA vice president Glen Gray presented all of the Division 3 champions with their trophies and kept John and Mike on stage to thank JEGS Automotive for its support of the JEGS Super Quick Series. John and Mike own the Delaware, Ohio-based high performance parts mail order company with their brothers Troy Sr. and Jeg Jr.
JEGS also was honored as one of the Land of the Winners Persons of the Year for 2009, with the presentation noting the company’s support in the tough economic times experienced last year.
During the evening, a silent auction raised money for the Drag Racing Association of Women and Racers For Christ.
