NHRA Pro Stock racer Allen Johnson knows how to have a good time. This weekend as the NHRA Full Throttle tour rolls into Bandimere Speedway for the NHRA Mopar Mile High Nationals there's a general consensus that the real action doesn't start until Friday.

Johnson disagrees. 

He believes the real action begins on Thursday night at the Mopar Big Block Party. Johnson says the “Official Starter” of the Mopar Mile-Highs, is scheduled for Thursday night, July 9, in downtown Golden, Colo., and it is the place to be.

Johnson, along with a large group of Mopar-powered NHRA drivers, will take part in a driver autograph session during the event.

“It’s more than fun taking part in the Big Block Party each year,” said Johnson. “It’s just a lot of camaraderie with a lot of true blue Mopar folks. It shows Mopar’s dedication to the sport. You get a huge crowd of fans and sportsman racers who come out to the event. It’s a great feeling, to know that I’m acting as one of the ambassadors for Mopar and helping to reach out to fans and enthusiasts.”

The outdoor gathering is fitting as Mopar®, Chrysler Group LLC’s Parts division, celebrates the longest continuous running sponsorship in the NHRA.
