DALLAS, TX – January 26th, 2010 – Momentum Race Group is pleased to announce the signing of drivers to round out its 2 car team for the Daytona Fresh From Florida 200 December 29th, 2010. Jeff Nowicki will drive with Jeff Altenburg in Camaro GS.R car number 05, and Daniel Orr and Jordon Musser will team up in car number 06.

“We have been working with these drivers and sponsors over the last few weeks trying to get a program put in place that works for all parties involved and it finally came together,” explains Jordon Musser, Executive Vice President of Momentum Race Group.
Jeff Altenburg has been a MRG team driver since day one and will join with Jeff Nowicki in Car 05. Nowicki has had a successful racing career including a top 10 in the Rolex Series 24 Hours of Daytona. Jeff’s technical background will also come in handy as MRG continues to develop the 2010 Camaro GS.R.

Jordon Musser will be with Daniel Orr in the MRG’s second 2010 Camaro GS.R. Orr is an accomplished road racer, most recently capturing the Competition Motorsports Association GT1 Championship in 2008. With select starts in the Koni Challenge ST division in 2009, Daniel is looking forward to a relationship with MRG. "Driving in the Fresh from Florida 200 in the 2010 Camaro GS.R represents an exciting chapter in my racing career that I am looking forward to writing. Monster Graphix and I want to thank Momentum Race Group for what I know is going to be a great team accomplishment at Daytona! See you on the podium, Jordan!" exclaimed Orr when discussing the excitement surrounding their first event together.

Momentum Race Group is campaigning two (2) Riley built Camaros in the Grand AM Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge Series in the “GS” class. It is also home to Momentum Autosports, a full service high performance race and street car design, engineering and fabrication facility.

MRG offers “Arrive & Drive” seats in the 2010 Riley Camaro for individual races, as well as full season rides. Interested parties should contact Jordon Musser through the Momentum Race Group website at www.MomentumRaceGroup.com.

Sorry for my absence


Hello race fans,

I just got a very interesting messages on facebook from a driver that really made my night, Tony Adamowicz.

Tony Adamowicz "Daniel,
You have great talent and awesome start racing. Wishing you the Best in 2010".
Cheers !

This is someone that I looked up to as I was growing up. I think he has raced more cars then I have races. Here is his website http://www.a2zracer.com/. It was such an honor to have him comment on my driving ability.

Sorry for my absence, but on September 30th I was involved in a very serious car accident in which I lost a great friend. I was banged up pretty bad and very lucky to have lived through it. I have to say it was a wake up call for me. I was kept on this earth for a reason. So please accept my apologies for my disappearing act. Since then it has been a road of rehab in which now I am 100% ready for 2010.

After finding new management I have recently signed with RRT Racing for the 2010 Grand-Am Continental Tire Challenge Series. With new management came a few new sponsors. I have to thank Vicki James of http://breakthruracing.com/ for her guidance and all the work she is helping me with. Her roots go way back in racing when people didn't have to pull out their wallet for a little help. To have her as a manager teaching me on the way to winning the 2010 championship is invaluable. Nancy of http://www.hinchmanracewear.com/ is another sponsor on board for the season.

The first race in Daytona January 28th is approaching fast. Keep checking back for further updates as we get closer. Thank you all for your support.
