NASCAR Hall of Famer Tony Stewart will continue his drag-racing career in 2026 — and he will compete against his wife. Stewart announced Thursday he will drive a Top Fuel dragster for Elite Motorsports next season. The move comes two weeks after he announced plans to turn his NHRA seat back over to his wife, Leah Pruett.
