Three-time Southern Nitrous Racing Association champion Doug Roberts of Alabama isn’t done yet.

After engine troubles plagued the start of his 2026 season, Roberts seriously considered stepping away from the driver’s seat of his familiar 1968 Camaro. For a racer who has built a championship-winning career in Pro Nitrous, the frustration was enough to make him question whether it was time to call it quits.
But Roberts has changed his mind.

The three-time champion has decided to continue his Pro Nitrous career, and his return is set for one of the biggest weekends of the summer — the DragCoverage Night of Fire, August 21–22 at Alabama International Dragway in Steele, Alabama.
Roberts’ return adds another proven name to an already anticipated Pro Nitrous field. With three SNRA championships behind him, he brings years of experience and a Camaro that has become well known throughout Southern doorslammer racing.

After nearly walking away earlier this year, Roberts will once again strap into the Camaro and chase win lights.
Doug Roberts is back — and his next chapter begins at Night of Fire.
