Jack Roush began his automotive career as an engine development engineer for Ford Motor Company in 1964. He soon discovered a passion for drag racing & formed his own team in 1970 with partner Wayne Gapp. The duo went on to win multiple championships in AHRA, NHRA & IHRA Pro Stock drag racing over the next five years. Combining engineering with entrepreneurship, Roush founded Roush Performance Engineering in 1976 & began selling designs he had created for his own team to the wider world of motorsport. His tenacious, solutions-based approach brought great demand for Roush engines & components for drag, oval-track, & hill-climb racing, as well as offshore powerboats.
