Top Fuel racers Tony Stewart and wife Leah Pruett are the parents of son Domenic James, born Sunday morning at Phoenix, just hours before the start of the In-N-Out Burger NHRA Finals at Pomona Dragstrip.

Stewart was back at the racetrack in Southern California around 8 a.m. local time, in time for his first-round meeting with Billy Torrence.

Pruett, 36, is a 12-time event winner in the Top Fuel category. She is on leave from NHRA competition and says she is unlikely to race in 2025. The 53-year-old Stewart, who is a three-time NASCAR Cup Series champion, is racing Pruett's car in 2024.
