Tony Stewart Racing debuts Dodge NHRA livery at Stellantis HQ ahead of Michigan's big return

Tony Stewart Racing revealed a special Dodge livery at Stellantis’ North America headquarters in Auburn Hills, Michigan, with team owner Tony Stewart joined by Dodge NHRA drivers Leah Pruett and Matt Hagan. The cars on display were the team’s Top Fuel dragster and Funny Car, presented ahead of the inaugural Dodge NHRA Great Lakes Nationals set for U.S. 131 Motorsports Park in Martin, Michigan.

The unveiling ties a major OEM presence directly to the event and highlights Dodge’s commitment to NHRA competition as the series returns to Michigan for the first time in 66 years. Organizers have said the Great Lakes Nationals will open the 2026 Countdown to the Championship playoffs, giving the race added significance for drivers and fans tracking the playoff battle.

For Michigan enthusiasts, the reveal signals high-profile factory support and hometown-level access to top-tier drag racing personalities and machinery. Next on the calendar is the September 18–20 race weekend at U.S. 131 Motorsports Park, where the livery and team entries will be contested on track.
