In January of this year, Justin Humphreys announced he had formed a partnership with Roush Yates Engines to run a 2010 Ford Mustang in the Pro Stock class this season.
While the two parties have yet to hit the racetrack in competition, the day they will is getting closer and closer.
“We have been out testing it (the 2010 Ford Mustang) twice so far,” Humphreys revealed late Thursday. “We’ve pretty much got the car sorted out and now we’re just trying to get the motor end sorted out. It is not up to where we expected or thought it would be, but hopefully by next week they (Roush Yates Engines) will have some pretty good news.”
Roush Yates Engines is based in Mooresville, N.C. They supply engines for NASCAR’s Sprint Cup, Nationwide and the Camping World Truck Series as well as ARCA RE/MAX, the Grand-AM Rolex Series and the FIA GT3. This year, Roush Yates Engines, also known as the Roush Yates Performance Group, entered into the NHRA arena with Humphreys.
