PITTSBURG, Kan. — Megan Meyer Lingner is a two-time National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) world champion who made a pit stop at Block 22 on Thursday, as she prepares to race this weekend at Mo-Kan Dragway near Ashbury, Mo. “It feels really good to be back in Pittsburg,” said  Lingner. “So, it’s been a few years since I’ve been back at Pittsburg, and I just love all of the renovations and all of the new stuff that is here now, like the idea shop, the Root Coffeehouse."
