Rowan "The Robot" Parlett started his career karting before becoming a PDRA Top Jr Dragster World Champion

In 2021, after making the switch to 8.90, Rowan tried his hand at PDRA, or Professional Drag Racing Association. It took him a couple races to get comfortable but by the third race in Ohio, Rowan was deadly on the tree and took home his first win earning him the nickname “The Robot”. The next race Rowan was able to double up and win again, propelling him into the points lead in his first PDRA season.

This stellar performance was able to qualify him for the first ever Summit Pro Stars invitation race where went trip zip in first round and on to win the $2,000 payday and Pro Stars Championship. Consistent performances at the final races of the season saw Rowan enter the World Finals with a mere 1 round lead. The Robot did his job and ended up winning the World Championship and even made it to the finals at the World Finals. After such an incredible season, Rowan was awarded the PDRA Sportsman Rookie of The Year.

GO Rowan's 🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️ GO !!! Good Luck 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 🍀 Hope you make it though to the next round!! 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁 ⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡✨✨✨✨✨

We finished up our Labor day race weekend by not loosing, however Mother Nature really won. Sundays race both Rowan and Matt made it past second round before rain ended the day. Monday we woke up to rain and when the track was dry, we both won third round as well. But then the rain came in again and Rockingham Dragway made the right call to split. We had a good time hanging out our North Carolina friends and glad we went.

Now we turn our attention to Maryland International Raceway this weekend for the King of the Creek where Rowan races for $3,000 and Matt for $70,000 over the weekend!

Matt Parlett Buddy gotta get on the phone for a PDRA event there!!! Just sayin

Well our first day at Rockingham Dragway did not go as planned. Matt gave it back in 2nd round and Rowan went -.001 red in 3rd round when it took a full 15 seconds for the tree to drop. His visor ended up fogging up and lost to someone double entered. We have one more day here and then happy to head home to get ready for King of the Creek. ... See MoreSee Less
