This weekend, with brand-new associate sponsor Competition Products on board, Rowe and company hope to repeat their ’09 performance. “As you can imagine, returning to Houston Raceway Park as the defending champion is a great thing for this Sterling Bridge team’s confidence,” said Rowe. “We’re looking at the most competitive lineup Pro Mod racing has likely ever seen, though, so we’re expecting a battle and know we’re going to bring our best if we want to enjoy the same success in Texas that we did last year. “We spent a few days testing after Gainesville and I have to say that Jimmy [Rector, crew chief] and the gang have this thing on a string. We know we can run the number, we know we have a championship-caliber, race-winning program, and we’re planning to prove it this weekend in Houston.” Always a leader in the effort to build corporate awareness of Pro Modified drag racing, Rowe will also bring with him to Houston a brand-new associate sponsor in Competition Products – an industry leading mail order performance parts company based in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. “We couldn’t be more excited to bring Competition Products on board with us in 2010,” said Rowe, “and I feel this is representative of the ever-increasing status of Pro Modified in the sport of drag racing. With a little bit of luck, we’re hoping to mark the start of this partnership with a win in Houston for Competition Products and all of our loyal sponsors and marketing partners.” The Danny Rowe Racing Pro Modified team will return to action this weekend at the O’Reilly Auto Parts NHRA Spring Nationals in Houston, Texas on Friday, April 9th, 2010 with qualifying sessions slated for 1:15 and 4:30 p.m. A final qualifying session will be held on Saturday, April 10th at 4 p.m. with eliminations scheduled for Sunday at 12:30 p.m. ESPN2 and ESPNHD will televise 30 minutes of action from the Get Screened America NHRA Pro Mod Drag Racing Series on Sunday, April 18th, at 10:30 a.m. ET.
