7/27/13 – Eric Bowling Update – It all seemed to start turning around during the Ohio Crankshaft No Box Nationals. Bowling, who has won the event twice started rolling as he would take 2 entries to 12 cars, then what seemed to be his day turned into his worst nightmare. “I let go of the button, turned around to see where my opponent was and then BOOM!” Bowling would lose a motor ruining his bid for a big check. “I gotta give credit to one of my biggest supporters Ohio Crankshaft as they were on hand at this event and Jon came to me and told me if I needed anything at all to just let him know and he could have it to me Monday Morning, even though that didn’t help the matter at hand it’s great knowing I have great sponsors that take care of me even when the results aren’t good” Bowling said. With that being said Bowling had the back up motor waiting on the engine stand with the new rotating assembly that Ohio Crankshaft had already supplied.
The next week and Bowling’s first outing with the new motor Bowling would get to the finals, and it seemed things were beginning to fall into place. Since the engine failure Bowling has made it to 5 final rounds winning 4 of those.

eached 11 finals winning 9 of them. “It feels good to finally be going rounds” Eric said. “My setup was a little off and we made some minor adjustments and it’s made a huge difference”.
