Why This Indy Matters
- The 71st Annual “Big Go.” Indy is the NHRA‘s crown jewel and the final race of the regular season before the Countdown to the Championship playoffs. Winning here defines legacies.
- RWR’s Two‑Pronged Nitro Effort. Millican is the defending U.S. Nationals Top Fuel winner, while Schumacher owns 10 career Indy Top Fuel wins-the most by any driver at this event-and is Top Fuel’s all‑time wins leader.
- Star Power Meets Form. NHRA’s own race preview highlights that with Millican’s 2024 Indy triumph and Schumacher’s return in RWR colors, RWR has a formidable shot at the Top Fuel title this weekend.
“Indy is the one every driver wants,” Kevin Keen added. “We’re thrilled to stand behind RWR and two of the sport’s most accomplished racers as they pursue another Wally on Labor Day.”

About Rick Ware Racing:
Rick Ware has been a motorsports mainstay for more than 40 years. It began at age 6 when the third-generation racer began his driving career and has since spanned four wheels and two wheels on both asphalt and dirt. Competing in the SCCA Trans Am Series and other road-racing divisions led Ware to NASCAR in the early 1980s, where he finished third in his NASCAR debut – the 1983 Warner W. Hodgdon 300 NASCAR Grand American race at Riverside (Calif.) International Raceway. More than a decade later, injuries would force Ware out of the driver’s seat and into fulltime team ownership. In 1995, Rick Ware Racing was formed, and with wife Lisa by his side, Ware has since built his eponymous organization into an entity that competes fulltime in the elite NASCAR Cup Series while simultaneously campaigning successful teams in the Top Fuel class of the NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series, Progressive American Flat Track, FIM World Supercross Championship (WSX) and zMAX CARS Tour.
