CONCORD, NC – Justin Ashley, driver of the SCAG Power Equipment Toyota Top Fuel dragster, is set to compete at the American Rebel Light NHRA 4-Wide Nationals at zMAX Dragway, just outside of Charlotte. As the defending event champion, Ashley is determined to capitalize on his team’s proven success and deliver a strong performance for SCAG Racing and local sponsor RCN Capital.

“Returning to zMAX Dragway as the defending event champions adds another layer of intrigue into the weekend,” Ashley said. “Winning one race is special, but capitalizing on the unique opportunity to win two years in a row is a major accomplishment. There’s no better time than the present to make that happen.”

Through the first four events of the Mission Foods NHRA Drag Racing Series 20-race season, Ashley has had two first round and one quarterfinal exit before he reached the final quad at the Las Vegas Four-Wide event just two weeks ago and earned semifinal points. The SCAG Toyota team is currently sitting eight in the Top Fuel points standings. Continue reading →

LAS VEGAS – Justin Ashley and his SCAG Power Equipment Toyota Top Fuel dragster team enter this weekend’s NHRA Four-Wide Nationals at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on the cusp of two major milestones for the Top Fuel standout: his 150th career round win and his 100th career start.

After his quarterfinal finish at the Arizona Nationals, Ashley has 149-career round wins and a No. 9 qualifying position at the most recent event, the NHRA Winternationals, marked his 99th-career race day start. With three races already completed on the Mission Foods NHRA Drag Racing Series 2025 schedule, Ashley currently sits ninth in points with hopes of finishing a milestone weekend with a winners circle celebration.

“The thought of competing in my 100th race and winning my 150th round of racing is surreal. I remember both my first Top Fuel race and first Top Fuel round win in Charlotte of 2019 like it was yesterday,” Ashley said. “The thing that stands out to me the most is how many people it took to get to this point. We still have a long way to go, but I cannot help but stop and reflect with gratitude on all that led to this point. I am so proud to be a part of SCAG Racing, this organization, and this team.” Continue reading →

POMONA, CA – Justin Ashley and his SCAG Power Equipment Toyota Top Fuel dragster team roll into the 65th annual Lucas Oil NHRA Winternationals at In-N-Out Burger Pomona Dragstrip, with a chance to etch their names deeper into NHRA history.

As the third stop of the 20-race 2025 NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series, Ashley arrives with three consecutive Winternationals victories (2022-2024) and four straight final-round appearances, poised to become the first Top Fuel driver—and only the second in NHRA history—to win this iconic event four years running.

“We have an opportunity to do something very special in Pomona,” Ashley said. “The NHRA Winternationals are always prestigious, but this one certainly has more juice to it given the circumstances,” Ashley said. “We tested on Monday in Phoenix with a specific goal in mind and I believe we accomplished that. Obviously, the conditions will be different this weekend, but what we learned should still be applicable. I am incredibly proud of our SCAG Racing team for earning the right to be in this position. They deserve it.” Continue reading →

CHANDLER, AZ – Top Fuel standout Justin Ashley and his SCAG Power Equipment Toyota Top Fuel dragster team are ready to ignite the desert as they head into the 40th annual NHRA Arizona Nationals at Firebird Motorsports Park.

Ashley, the 2020 NHRA Rookie of the Year, enters the weekend with confidence after reaching the final round at Firebird in 2024, where he fell just short against Shawn Langdon. With a win at the Arizona Nationals in 2023 Ashley will be looking to pilot his 11,000-horsepower SCAG Toyota machine to his third consecutive final round at the Arizona Nationals.

“What excites me most about returning to Phoenix is the opportunity to continue making laps on this race car. Mike [Green], Tommy [DeLago], and the team worked hard over the last few months to make the necessary changes required for increased performance. The more laps we make, the more data we receive, the better we become,” Ashley said. “We’ve had a lot of success at Firebird Motorsports Park in the past and are fully positioned to do the same this weekend. It’s our goal to go just one round further than last season and park our SCAG Power Equipment Toyota Top Fuel dragster in the winners circle.” Continue reading →

GAINESVILLE, FL – Justin Ashely, driver of the SCAG Power Equipment Toyota Top Fuel dragster, will take on two-time world champion Brittany Force in the opening round of the Right Trailers Top Fuel All Star Callout.

Eight of the best Top Fuel dragster pilots qualified for the specialty Top Fuel race taking place at Gainesville Raceway this weekend during the Amalie Motor Oil NHRA Gatornationals. Ashley was the No. 4 seed and by the luck of the draw was matched with Force.

“This weekend in particular is probably one of my favorites because you have the start of the season and the Top Fuel Callout. There’s a level of unpredictability there. I didn’t get to call someone out and wasn’t called out either, so it ended up Brittany Force and I,” Ashley said. “Super excited for the opportunity to race her, she’s the two-time champ for a reason. I think we’ll bring out the best in each other both as drivers and as teams. We’re going to both be eager to turn on win lights, that’s for sure.” Continue reading →

GAINESVILLE, FL – Justin Ashley and the SCAG Power Equipment Toyota Top Fuel dragster team are eager to kick-off their 2025 Mission Foods NHRA Drag Racing Series season at this weekend’s Amalie Motor Oil NHRA Gatornationals at Gainesville Raceway.

The SCAG Toyota team is hoping to take that success and momentum and carry it right over the 2025 season starting with the historic Gatornationals.

“This is one of my favorite times of the year. I loved everything we accomplished last season as a team and think back with so much appreciation for the journey. But now it’s time to officially put it in the rear-view mirror,” Ashley said. “Thanks to SCAG and the SCAG Power Equipment PRO Superstar Shootout, we are fortunate to have made more laps than ever before heading into the start of an NHRA season.” Continue reading →
