Patterson Elite Performance to Build Engine for Charity Sweepstakes
July 1, 2016Nick Ferri, Co-Owner of Patterson Elite Performance, has volunteered to create a custom-tuned Mopar 6.4L Gen lll Hemi racing engine for this year's Sunnen Engine Charity Sweepstakes, to be held at the PRI show in December. Sunnen sponsors the sweepstakes, which donates 100% of ticket proceeds to Victory Junction, a North Carolina children’s camp co-founded by Kyle Petty to provide medically supervised activities for kids who have serious health conditions. The 2015 sweepstakes generated more than $59,000 for Victory Junction.
"The work at Victory Junction deserves all the support we can give it, and we intend to create a 'must have' engine that we hope will produce record breaking ticket sales," Ferri said. Ferri's team built the engines that delivered consecutive national championships in 2014 and 2015 for NHRA Pro Stock driver Erica Enders-Stevens. "Our goal is to bring some of that winning technology and know-how to the sweepstakes engine."
Online ticket sales for the 2016 sweepstakes will begin July 1 at the Performance Racing Industry website www.performanceracing.com, and the Sunnen website.
Tickets will be sold at the Sunnen Engine Charity Sweepstakes booth at the show in December.
