Doing battle in the division of Pro Mod is a tall task in its self, but to have the success that the Quality Plus team had in 2007 is a great accomplishment by all. Veteran driver Tony Pontieri placed 4th overall in AMS Pro Mod Championship points, qualified 2nd for the Pro Care Rx Pro Mod Clash, ran 6.000 @ 243 mph, and won the title at the AC Delco Las Vegas race to close the year. Pontieri exclaimed, "I could not have done it without Rob 'the Boss' Sporring, his wife Anne, and their company Quality Plus Compressors. They have given me the opportunity of a lifetime. We work hard to have the fun we have and 'the Boss' makes it all possible. I also want to thank my wife Doris and daughter Lilly for still letting me play like a kid. It means the world to me."
The Quality Plus racing team plans for a bigger and better 2008 season. With improvements coming to the trusty 57 Chevy and a stronger engine program, hopefully the team will put its heart and soul into a championship effort. Sporring states, "We have all the proper players on the team. Frank Fierro, Randy Ward, Mark and Debbie Lawrence and Paulo Dalimonte are the keys to our great season. We thank them for their efforts and commitment."
You can expect the blue and white '57 Chevy to be on track for pre season testing as early as February.
