BUENA PARK, Calif. -- Mr. Horsepower and Danny Rowe, owner and driver of the Sterling Bridge 1967 Camaro Pro Modified are looking forward to 2011 with high expectations. Rowe, who closed out the 2010 Get Screened America NHRA Pro Mod Drag Racing Series season as No. 2 in the world, was a natural choice to be the Pro Mod representative of the iconic cigar chomping Mr. Horsepower woodpecker apparel brand.

Rowe has cemented his status as the perennial front runner and championship contender, qualifying in the Top 5 at six of ten events this season, winning the O'Reilly Auto Parts NHRA Spring Nationals in Houston, as well as amassing numerous round wins. Danny Rowe and company are looking to build on their success in 2011, and are excited to have Mr. Horsepower and title sponsor Sterling Bridge on board.
