Coughlin’s racing everywhere this weekend

There will be plenty of members of the Coughlin family hitting the race track this weekend. NHRA POWERade Pro Stock ace Jeg Coughlin Jr. will be competing at the NHRA O’Reilly Fall Nationals in Dallas. A little closer to home, fans can find John, Troy, Mike, and even Troy Coughlin Jr. flying the yellow-and-black Jeg’s Mail Order colors at the NHRA Lucas Oil Division 3 event at National Trail Raceway in Hebron, Ohio.

John will be driving his Jeg’s Mail Order Chevy Cavalier in Super Stock. The last event he competed at was the Mac Tools U. S. Nationals where he took home class honors for Super Stock C-Modified.

This weekend will also mark a return to racing for Troy. The second-generation driver will be fielding his Jeg’s Chevy Cavalier that he raced previously in Pro Stock. A number of modifications have been made to the car with the intent of making it a competitive threat in the Top Sportsman category.

Also in Hebron, Mike will be racing in Super Gas this weekend. He is focused on winning the division title and moving up in NHRA Lucas Oil Super Gas championship.

Keep your eyes pealed for Troy’s son Troy Jr. TJ will be joining his father and uncle’s as the third-generation Coughlin will be looking to score a victory in his Jr. Dragster.
