Where we came from: A company history about Daniel Crower Racing
In the 1950’s Bruce Crower debuted his Cams, Fuel Systems and Clutches on the race cars of ‘Big Daddy’ Don Garlits, Indy car legend Jim Rathman, The Unser brothers and many others. From that point forward the Crower name has become one of the most respected in all of racing. Because of his contribution to the racing industry, Bruce Crower was inducted into the Drag Racing Hall of Fame in 1993.
Daniel Crower, Bruce’s son, grew up in the garages and pits of the Indy 500, NHRA and NASCAR watching his dad make camshafts and build engines. Following in his father’s footsteps, Daniel Crower began producing camshafts and other valve train components in the late 1990’s. In 1996, Dan went to the Indy 500 and caught the “racing” bug making his custom camshafts for various teams & Drivers in the Indy Racing league such as Tony Stewart, Sam Schmidt and 1998 winner Eddie Cheever; who used Dan’s custom-made cams when he won.
In the late 90’s when the Yamaha 426 was released, it sparked Dan’s interest once again in motorcycles. Daniel began making cams and testing four strokes and realized that much of what he had learned in auto racing was applicable to four stroke motorcycle engines as well. Daniel raced motorcycles as a kid in San Diego Ca; his kids also raced motorcycles, so he felt like it was a natural progression to add motorcycle components to the parts list. Even though Daniel was branching out into motorcycles he was still involved in the auto racing industry.
In 2003 Daniel was invited to enter the Popular Hot Rodding magazine Engine masters contest. Only 50 engine builders from across the United States were invited to enter. Daniel placed 3rd overall in the national contest, beating out some of NASCARS top engine builders. During the engine masters contest Daniel was featured in Popular Hot Rodding magazine several times. For the last few years Daniels main focus has been on the research and development of new camshafts for the ever evolving engines of the powersports and auto industries. Today, Daniel Crower Racing has become a leader in after-market valve train components for the powersports, automotive and marine industries.
From Camshafts to Rods, Race Heads and Engine Kits, Daniel Crower Racing has got what you need for the ultimate in power!
