Penske and PRS Provide Winning Suspension Solutions

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE



Penske and PRS Provide Winning Suspension Solutions

PITTSBORO, N.C. (February 27, 2017): Penske Racing Shocks and Precision
Racing Suspension (PRS) work closely together to deliver winning suspension
solutions to drag race teams across all applications. Adam Lambert, founder
of PRS, was a lead technician and manager of the drag racing market at
Penske for years before stepping out into consulting. Penske and PRS have
become the largest and winningest suspension combination chosen by PDRA
Teams.

“Last year we won three out of the five pro championships - Pro Extreme,
Pro Nitrous and Pro Stock,�?? told Lambert. “We have a suspension package for
all the different classes. We offer four-link and weight balance setup on
cars to complement the shocks and vice versa. On any given weekend, we work
with over 75% of the field. PDRA has been great to work with. It’s by far
our biggest market. The best quality teams in the country come together all
in one spot. It’s crazy not to want to be a part of it.�??

“We want to be involved with the PDRA because of the way the organization
has been representing itself and the way the racers are flocking to the
PDRA events,�?? added Aaron Lambert, Director of Competition at Penske. “They
have really good car counts. It’s a good, competitive series, and for us as
Penske, that’s what we look for - a series that has a good, competitive
balance where they allow ingenuity and let the racers be creative and use
what’s best to go fast. We’re constantly developing here at Penske. If we
can find something new that makes the car go faster we’re going to do
everything we can to get it out there so our racers are hopefully in the
winner’s circle at the end of the weekend.�??

Adam has traveled worldwide helping set up suspension on Pro Mods, Pro
Stocks and more, and will be at all PDRA events this season, providing
suspension consultation for racers. Shane Sweigert, Drag Market Manager at
Penske will also follow the complete tour. Aaron plans to attend several
events, as well.

“We are providing additional at-track support and bringing a vast technical
background with us,�?? stated Aaron. “We’re involved in all types of racing,
and we like to cross pollinate all the data and technology we use in all
forms of racing. So we’re seeing a lot of new things come out that have
maybe been used elsewhere but we’re noticing the benefits of it in drag
racing. There’s quite a few new things we might have out this year, but one
of the things we’re most excited about is the at-track support and
technical representation all of our customers will benefit from us being
there and helping our guys go fast.

“We’re looking forward to 2017 with the PDRA and are excited to be a part
of the effort.�??
