SCELZI AND CAPPS GET FREAKY

Team Mopar drivers Gary Scelzi and Ron Capps are set to appear on Speed Channel's "SpeedFreaks TV," Saturday, July 16. The duo will chat with hosts Kenny Sargent, Crash Gladys, Statt Mann Caruthers and Lugg Nuttz from the Mopar Speedshop, beginning at 12 a.m. EST.

Scelzi (shown) piloted his Hemi® Oakley Dodge to a third-place finish in the 2004 POWERade NHRA Funny Car standings. Scelzi returned to the cockpit with Don Schumacher Racing in 2005, and the team is currently ranked second in the POWERade NHRA Funny Car championship standings. He will also serve as a co-host of the 2005 Mopar Big Block Party in downtown Golden, Colorado, which kicks off the NHRA Mopar Mile-High Nationals event.
