Danny Rowe will admit that there is no time like the present to make something happen, and that's
just what the Laguna Beach, California-native intends to do this weekend in Bristol at the 9th
annual NHRA Thunder Valley Nationals.
Despite his best efforts, Rowe has found himself in an incredibly tight points battle towards the
end of his last three seasons in Pro Mod competition, and a strong outing in Tennessee this weekend
would give him the boost needed points-wise to fight for the Get Screened America NHRA Pro Mod
Challenge world championship prior to the end of the season.
"It almost always comes down to the wire for us with the points chase," said Rowe, veteran driver
of the Sterling Bridge-backed '67 Chevy Camaro Pro Mod. "However, a tight points battle is a
testament to the talent pool here in the NHRA Pro Mod Challenge; every car and driver is a threat
at this point and we're excited to be competing against the best of the best.
"We're only a few rounds out of the lead and a solid outing in Bristol would put us in a good
position to vie for the title a little bit earlier in the season than we're accustom to. With the
caliber of cars out here, though, I don't see anyone running away with it."
Thunder Valley Raceway, undoubtedly one of the most anticipated stops on the NHRA Full Throttle
Drag Racing Series tour, will host 13 of the nation's baddest doorslammers and provide the perfect
stage for what could easily be one of the best races of the season.
Going into the NHRA Thunder Valley Nationals, Danny Rowe is 6th in the Get Screened America NHRA
Pro Mod Challenge points.
