RON CAPPS TO RUN NAPA FILTERS CAR IN GAINESVILLE

BROWNSBURG, Ind. (March 8, 2010) - As part of a NAPA AUTO PARTS March
promotion, Ron Capps will drive the NAPA Filters Dodge Charger Funny Car at
the 41st annual NHRA Gatornationals in Gainesville, Fla., March 12-14, the
third event of the 2010 NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series.

During March, consumers will receive a free NAPA racing cap with any
purchase at participating NAPA AUTO PARTS stores (while supplies last), and
will get 40 percent off the regular price of NAPA Gold Filters
(air/oil/fuel/cabin air). At NAPA AutoCare Centers or any installer using
NAPA parts, consumers will get a $20 mail-in rebate when purchasing a NAPA
Gold Air or Cabin air filter in conjunction with an oil change using a NAPA
Gold or ProSelect oil filter.

"I've been talking about the NAPA Know How that has helped us get to the
final round in Pomona and to the quarterfinals in Phoenix, in the first two
races of the 2010 season," said Capps, who is third in the point standings,
"and that's the theme this season. NHRA racing fans should take advantage of
this promotion and root us on in Gainesville. We won the race in Topeka last
year with the Adaptive One Brakes NAPA body, so we're hoping for the same
results with the NAPA Filters body."
 
ŗWe are looking forward to seeing Ron run the NAPA Filters paint scheme this
weekend at the Gatornationals. We couldnšt think of a better place to
showcase the above promotions than this historic event. We hope the fans
enjoy the paint scheme and are able to take advantage of our special offers
during the month of March," commented Mike Rearden, NAPAšs Director of
Events/Sponsorships.
