Leah Pritchett and her husband Gary Pritchett’s relationship

The Pritchett couple is so much in love but is also one of a unique pair in NHRA drag racing. Both are famous in their field as one the most recognized drag racers.

Leah is having her time of life in her first full season as a Top Fuel driver with Don Schumacher Racing and primary sponsor Papa John’s Pizza. She also had a spectacular breakthrough season already, capturing wins in three of the first 12 races.

In the coming days, she will try to kick off the second half of the 24-race NHRA national event schedule near this weekend with yet another win this season in the Route 66 NHRA Nationals at Route 66 Raceway in Joliet, Illinois, about 50 miles southwest of Chicago.

Also, Gary is new to the crew member on the Top Fuel dragster of Steve Torrence but has been able to rise to the top becoming Leah’s No. 1 rival.

Mrs. Pritchett said,

“This year has definitely brought its challenges. Before, it was all fun and games, joking matters and all of that (between both teams).”

“But then our teams have turned into pretty serious rivals since the beginning of this season.”

Leah Pritchett and Gary Pritchett as Drag Racers

Torrence is one of the best and leads the Top Fuel ranks with four wins and is one of the No. 1 in the standings, Leah was one of the racers after her eight races thus far in 2017.

Now recently she has dropped to No.2 this weekend. And when Torrence and Leah meet on the starting line and run down a drag strip in less than four seconds and more than 325 mph, you might think things have the potential to get a little tense in the Pritchett household.

Leah said,

“I think it’s unusual for everybody else but us. Since we’ve been together six years, we’ve never been on the same team. So, that’s how we know it to work.”

They both want each other to succeed in their life but not at the expense of their loyalties which has proved them to be side-by-side on a drag strip.

Mrs. Pritchett said,

“That’s a great question and I cannot answer that for him, I can guarantee you that. I think because of the success we’ve had this year, he can’t do anything but want to beat us.
“Say if we were down in 15th place and they’re No. 1, I’m sure he would be hoping for our team much more.
“But we operate completely independent. I know nothing about what happens under his canopy, I mean nothing. It’s like living in Detroit and the wife works for Ford and the husband works for Chevy.”

As much success as our team has had this season, which is so unreal and so deserving to my team… I can't help but throw it back to the ones who started it all at ground zero one year ago. #creditwherecreditsdue @lagana142 @saramattt @garypritchett_fc @lagana_racing #roommates #og #nitroninjette #dragon #camelion #khaleesi #tf4 #home #teamnosleep #latergram

Both Torrence and Pritchett are on top no.1 and no.2 respectively, having only 50 points to separate their ranking and are heading towards the race. Also, there is the possibility of them being in the race in Sunday’s finals against each other.

Also, being the top racers there will be some fun fight for the Top Fuel championship at the season’s end. Leah said laughingly,

“If we’re neck-and-neck like we are now come Pomona (the final race of the season and likely the championship-deciding race), we will probably have completely separate hotel rooms – if not completely different hotels.”
“I’m staying where my team stays and he’ll stay where his team stays.”
