Permatex, a leading innovator in chemical technology for automotive maintenance and repair, will continue its longtime sponsorship of the Follow A Dream Top Alcohol Funny Car as the team’s corporate sponsor for the 2016 NHRA season.

The Follow A Dream team enters the new season on the heels of a second-place finish in the East Region and a seventh-place finish nationally in 2015. The national finish tied the best finish ever posted by the team. This year marks the 12th consecutive season that Permatex has partnered with Jay Blake and his Follow A Dream race team in the NHRA series.

“We're very proud to continue our partnership with Permatex, and we're excited for the 2016 season to start and to build on our success from last year,” said Blake. “We had a great year but just missed out on our best finish ever nationally, and we want to get there this year.” In the past six years, the Permatex Follow A Dream team has been in the NHRA top 10 four times.

Follow A Dream also announced the retirement of Tom Howell, longtime tuner of the Permatex/Follow A Dream team cars. Howell has been an indispensable part of the Follow A Dream team since 2003, and under his guidance, the team has captured a regional championship, four national event titles, and 10 divisional/regional event titles, including three wins in 2015 with driver Todd Veney, a veteran NHRA racer and motorsports journalist who has been with the Follow A Dream team since 2010.
