• LEAH PRUETT continues managing her Top Fuel team operations while navigating new motherhood, proving that having a baby doesn’t mean stepping away from the sport entirely. She’s staying deeply involved with strategy and team decisions while husband Tony Stewart handles driving duties in her TSR Direct Connection Dodge.
• The Top Fuel veteran has confirmed her intention to return to competition but isn’t rushing the timeline, showing the kind of strategic thinking that’s made her successful. “My heart says I’ll be back in a car… I don’t know which one or when,” PRUETT said, keeping her options open while maintaining her team’s momentum.
• Stewart continues emphasizing his temporary role, making it clear this is PRUETT’s team and he’s just keeping the seat warm. “Whatever time, whatever event that is, if midseason she says she wants to get back in that car, I will gladly step out,” he said, respecting her ownership of the program and racing legacy.
