MOPAR'S JOHNSON TO MAKE APPEARANCE ON SPEED CHANNEL'S 'SPEEDFREAKS' TV

Center Line, Mich. - Team Mopar's NHRA POWERade Pro Stock pilot Allen Johnson 
has been busy putting in some public relations time over the holidays, and 
race fans can catch up with him in the off-season this week. Johnson will be a 
guest on this Saturday's "SpeedFreaks" TV episode, which was shot from the 
Mopar SpeedShop display at the Performance Racing Industry trade show in December. 
The show airs on Saturday, January 7, at 11:30 p.m. EST. "SpeedFreaks" hosts 
are Kenny Sargent, Crash Gladys, Statt Mann and Lugg Nuttz. 

Johnson finished 11th in the 2005 NHRA POWERade Pro Stock Series 
Championship. He had one victory in 2005, claiming the February event at Firebird Raceway. 
The victory marked his first since 2002. Johnson will return as part of Team 
Mopar in 2006, driving for the J&J Racing team that he co-owns with his 
father, Roy Johnson.
