Superior Lexus gathered today to recognize Kurk Lowry and his outstanding appearance that he made at the 2010 Randy Dorton Hendrick Engine Builders Showdown. This event was created nine years ago as a way for Rick Hendrick to recognize the talents of his engine employees with the Hendrick Motorsports and the Hendrick Automotive Group. The late Randy Dorton was instrumental in the development of this competition. He was a legendary engine builder who set the bar for future engine builders. The competition couples 12 individuals from Hendrick Motorsports with 12 individuals from the Hendrick Automotive Group. These 12 teams compete in the build-off to determine the best and fastest engine building pair.
Kurk Lowry has been with Superior Lexus for 9 years and exemplifies all the qualities that make an exceptional engine builder. He has always been hard working and continually finds ways to improve. Kurk Lowry, first-time participant, was paired with Mike Maiwald from Hendrick Motorsports and both took second place with an impressive time of 24:18.
Phil Humbert, Executive General Manager and VP, was proud to present Kurk Lowry with an award and the gift of a leather jacket for a job well done. Congratulations Kurk! This is a very impressive and well deserved honor!
