While Antron Brown qualifies for a starting spot in the O’Reilly Midwest Nationals on May 3, another famous Brown, Big Brown, looks to add his name to the horse racing annals when he battles a challenging field at Churchill Downs during 134th Kentucky Derby in Louisville, Ky.  Antron Brown has taken NHRA drag racing by storm since making the unprecedented move from Pro Stock Motorcycle to Top Fuel. The 32-year-old racer from Indianapolis earned the pole at the 2008 NHRA season-opener in Pomona, Calif. and hasn’t looked back. Arguably the hottest driver on tour, Brown recently earned his second win in three races on April 27 at Atlanta Dragway after making his third straight final round appearance. Brown made NHRA history on March 28 becoming the first driver in NHRA history to earn wins in both Top Fuel and Pro Stock Motorcycle. <span class="intext"> <script type='text/javascript'><!--//<![CDATA[ var m3_u = (location.protocol=='https:'?'https://www.autoracingdaily.com/0pen@ds/www/delivery/ajs.php':'http://www.autoracingdaily.com/0pen@ds/www/delivery/ajs.php'); var m3_r = Math.floor(Math.random()*99999999999); if (!document.MAX_used) document.MAX_used = ','; document.write ("<scr"+"ipt type='text/javascript' src='"+m3_u); document.write ("?zoneid=47"); document.write ('&cb=' + m3_r); if (document.MAX_used != ',') document.write ("&exclude=" + document.MAX_used); document.write ("&loc=" + escape(window.location)); if (document.referrer) document.write ("&referer=" + escape(document.referrer)); if (document.context) document.write ("&context=" + escape(document.context)); if (document.mmm_fo) document.write ("&mmm_fo=1"); document.write ("'><\/scr"+"ipt>"); //]]>--></script><noscript><a href='http://www.autoracingdaily.com/0pen@ds/www/delivery/ck.php?n=abcb3366&cb=INSERT_RANDOM_NUMBER_HERE' target='_blank'><img src='http://www.autoracingdaily.com/0pen@ds/www/delivery/avw.php?zoneid=47&cb=INSERT_RANDOM_NUMBER_HERE&n=abcb3366' border='0' alt='' /></a></noscript> </span> Now with 18 wins to his credit, he looks to advance to his fourth straight final round when the NHRA POWERade Drag Racing Series visits Gateway International Raceway near St. Louis May 2-4.
