	Troy Coughlin Jr. Drag racing is all Troy Coughlin Jr. has wanted to do. That makes sense, of course, given the immersion of the sport by his family. Coughlin, known as T.J. to family and friends, became the first of the third generation of drag racing Coughlins to win a national event in NHRA competition. That happened at the final Las Vegas event in 2009, and T.J. has hardly slowed down since. T.J. won the prestigious U.S. Nationals at Indy in the Super Comp category last year, adding to his growing resume. Read More...

He'll return to the JEGS CRA All-Stars Tour in 2012, gunning for the series championship. A third-generation racer following in the footsteps of his grandfather, Jeg. Sr., and his dad, John, Cody is making his name in stock-car racing circles instead of the straight lines of drag racing. Read More...
	Jeg Coughlin III Jeg Coughlin III, or "Jeggie" as he's known to family and friends, has become a fixture at NHRA drag races whenever his school schedule allows him to travel with his five-time drag racing champion father Jeg Coughlin Jr. Jeggie has been on hand for countless winner's circle celebrations with his famous father and has even reveled in a few championship crownings as well.

	Jack Coughlin Jack Coughlin, the oldest son of drag racing champion Mike Coughlin, could be the most versatile sportsman of the third generation of Coughlins.

	Paige Coughlin Paige Coughlin's love of horsepower is slightly different than her decorated father, uncles and granddad. Rather than following the family into the world of drag racing, Paige prefers showing her award-winning ponies. Together with her younger sister Kelly, Paige competes in the Children's Hunter Jumper Small Pony division in AA-rated shows from Florida to New York. Training five days a week and showing on weekends, Paige already has qualified for the prestigious Pony Finals in Lexington, Ky. Read More...
	Kelly Coughlin Kelly Coughlin enjoys training her horses so much she helped her famous grandfather Jeg Coughlin Sr. design a stable for her championship-level mounts. Kelly and her older sister Paige compete in the Children's Hunter Jumper Small Pony division in AA-rated shows as far away as Florida and New York, and they've already qualified for the esteemed Pony Finals in Lexington, Ky., which take place in the summer. Up next, a chance at the Devon Show, one of the most select gatherings in the country.
	Clay Coughlin Clay Coughlin has been waiting for 2012 for as long as he can remember. That's because the youngest son of drag racing champion Mike Coughlin turns 8 during the year, which in drag racing means he's finally old enough to pilot his own JEGS.com Junior Dragster. Showing a deep understanding and love for drag racing for as long as anyone can remember, the youngest of the racing Coughlin clan could very well be a true firecracker on the racetrack. He's already quite adept at zooming around the family's property on his go-kart and four-wheeler. Read More...
