Team Aruba readies for 2020 with first test session of the season

ORLANDO, USA — Team Aruba is back stateside
after enjoying the off season back home in their
island paradise, the One Happy Island. They
readied the Aruba.com Mustang at their shop
in Union, S.C, then made the trek to Florida for a
two day test session.

The team will pursue the 2020 NHRA Mountain
Motor Pro Stock schedule, which includes Char-
lotte, Richmond, Chicago, Denver, Brainerd
and St. Louis. The Four-Wide Nationals will kick
off their 2020 tour, April 24-26.

“We’ve thoroughly enjoyed racing with NHRA,
so we’re excited to expand our schedule there
this year and grow our fan base,” began Ven
Eman, team owner. “Racing with NHRA pro-
vides us with more opportunities to promote our
sponsors and our island. We’re able to take our
brand into new markets and run before a larg-
er audience. It’s an exciting time for Mountain
Motor Pro Stock and our team.”
