  • Clay Millican has certainly become a star beyond his Top Fuel racing career. With numerous achievements and awards already to his credit, Millican will soon add “mentor” to that growing list. Millican will join SPEED to host the second season of the network’s popular prime time original program, Drag Race High (Feb. 18, 10 p.m. ET). Most would recognize Millican from his successful career as a Top Fuel driver. He has had fifty-one International Hot Rod Association event victories, winning six consecutive Top Fuel World Championships and holds the record for most wins in a single season. Millican’s passion for motor sports began as a boy while attending all types of motor sports events with his father Jimmie. “My Dad would take me to races all over,” Millican said. “We may go watch NASCAR races, dirt car races or even tractor pulls. If it had a motor we would go. My Dad was a huge reason for the passion I have for motor sports.” Millican began his career in 1998 when he earned his Top Fuel license, making his debut in a Chicago White Sox-sponsored dragster at the inaugural event in Chicago. Since then, Millican has won a silver medal at the 1999 Nitro Olympics in Hockenheim, Germany, named 2000 International Hot Rod Association rookie of the year, competed in numerous National Hot Rod Association events, with a career-best finish of fourteenth in points order and has become the winningest Top Fuel driver in IHRA history. Not only has Millican found success on the track, but off track as well. As the Chairman of the Munford Skate Park fundraising committee, he assisted in raising funds to build the park; his involvement inspired by his oldest son Cale’s love for skating. Over the summer, Millican spent twelve days in Iraq where he signed autographs and spoke to the troops about driving a race car. No stranger to SPEED, Millican has made previous appearances on the network as host of the ‘Launch Hour’ original program Blow it Up. He will return to the SPEED line-up in 2009 for scheduled appearances on the up-coming season of Pinks all Out. Millican, who made a guest appearance on the first season of Drag Race High, will return to the second season as host of the show, judging the student’s completed projects and dropping in to offer advice along the way. “The chance to be the head judge on Drag Race High is a great opportunity,” said Millican. “I love working with kids. If I can help have any positive influence on these young people that would be a wonderful thing. This is a great chance to help show these kids how they can become involved in a team project and also find out how they perform while under the spotlight of being filmed constantly.”
