Steve Burck Display's Funny Car @ ABB Tour

NHRA racer Burck set to display at ABB Robotics on the Move Productivity Tour in Houston

HOUSTON - NHRA Top Alcohol Funny Car racer Steve Burck will be displaying his 250 mph Chevy Camaro during this week's ABB Robotics on the Move Partnership in Productivity Tour in Houston for primary sponsor ARC Specialties. ARC Specialties is the Southwest's largest ABB Robotics manufacturer and distributor.

Burck, of Corpus Christi, Texas, is a longtime friend of ARC Specialties founder and President Dan Allford, and is proud to have his race team associated with the advances ARC Specialties has made in the robotics field.

"Dan and the folks over at ARC Specialties asked me to be a part of their display for ABB," said Burck. "It's the least I could do for them, and I'm honored they would have my team be a part of their display. Hopefully we can help increase their visibility and maybe pick up a few new drag racing fans in the process."

This exciting, interactive and informative event will engage participants in learning about the latest in robotic trends and technologies. The event will be held today from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Houston Marriott Westchase at 2900 Briarpark Drive, Houston, TX 77042.
