NHRA - National Hot Rod Association

Reigning NHRA Mello Top Fuel champion Antron Brown is so close in his bid to repeat as Top Fuel champion he can smell it. The driver of the Matco Tools dragster enters the NHRA Toyota Nationals with a 150-point lead over second-place Doug Kalitta and needs only to leave Las Vegas with at least a 131- point lead to have the title wrapped up.

Indy bureau chief John Kernan caught up with the red hot champion to talk about being on history’s doorstep.
