The #37 D. J. Racing Corvette has been running many
Waterford Hills Raceway and SCCA Regional events.
Danny Kellermeyer competed in five SCCA National races
this 2010 season.
Waterford Hills Raceway has seen some awesome racing in
this 2010 season. Races have been held in heavy rain, light
rain as well as dry conditions. The Corvette field saw the
#37 up front in all six races so far this season. Not only has
Danny run in the front but he also managed to bump the
record, which was held by teammate Joe Cauley. Joe had
set and held the previous record for over two years.
The first SCCA National was Mid-Ohio in May. Danny’s C5
#37 finished second to David Pintaric’s new Viper. The
second and third races were held at Grattan Raceway. The
#37 Corvette led both of the two National races for two first
place finishes. The next two Divisional races were held at
Nelson Ledges and were won with dignity.
One SCCA regional race was at Gingerman Raceway where
a change of class to ITE concluded with Danny winning and
setting a track record, 2½ seconds lower.
Gingerman Raceway was the fifth race of the Great Lakes
Divisional Championship. The track was hot and dry and
Danny’s Corvette once again got the checkered flag. His lap
times also set a new track record.
“We have been extremely lucky,” says Danny Kellermeyer.
“Our competition has been tough and racing tight. We have
been qualifying up front which has really helped with our
overall results.”

D. J. Racing Team: Displays and Shows
D. J. Race Enterprise
Racing fans got to view the D.J. Racing Corvettes during this 2010 season.
NCCC Calhoun County Corvette Show and Back to the Bricks Kick Off were two
special shows, which found the D.J.Racing team talking Corvettes and parts.
Corvette Hospitality Race Weekend, Back to the Brick and Americas Corvette
Show are still coming up. Last year the Back to the Bricks show in Flint, MI
sported 125,000 spectators and Fans and 25,000 cars. This year promoters expect
even more.

Engineer gives a special recognition award!
“We are pleased to be a part of these spectacular events”, said Jeff Cauley one of the drivers and owner of Cauley
Chevrolet. “Spectators and fans love to get right up to the racecars. The smiles on parents and the kids faces when
we set them inside and strap them into our Corvette seats makes the whole event fun”.
The team is real approachable and it is an excellent opportunity to answer technical questions thrown their way from
spectators. Questions are always centered around what products we use, how to make their car stop faster or how to
make it go faster. Posters and giveaways are all part of the display. Driver autograph sessions can last up to 2 hours
and gives the drivers an opportunity to meet everyone first hand.

Dewitt Radiators and Patriot Products
Join Team for Support in 2010
DeWitts is the only company that specializes in
Corvette aluminum radiators. Now offering
"Direct Fit" high performance aluminum radiators
for C1-C5 Corvettes. Correct "Restoration
Radiators" and surge tanks for 1960-72 models
are reproduced from original tooling and licensed
by General Motors.
Patriot Performance began its business with
revolutionizing the CNC cylinder head market. They are
one of the largest suppliers of ported LS, Modular Ford,
SBC, SBF, BBC, and other heads in the nation.
The porting of performance heads has always been
part of attaining maximum horsepower. Patriot
Performance designs their own CNC programs to port
the chamber, bowl, and runners to attain maximum air
and fuel flow. Slight alterations can affect that flow
tremendously. Their ported heads resemble works of
art after they are machined. Along with their ported
heads, they offer their Freedom series heads. With the
introduction of their Freedom series, they brought a
revolution to the performance head market.
Restoration radiators are 100% correct
reproduction aluminum plate type radiators.
These radiators appear exactly like the original
model, including the GM part number, date code,
and label. Plate type radiators are not simply for
show, as they will out perform any tube type
aluminum racing radiator. With ratings as high as
4600btu/m, these radiators are the highest
performance radiators on the market. A four row
copper replacement radiator provides about
3300btu/m which usually results in a hot motor. If
your car originally came with an aluminum
radiator, changing to copper radiator is a
downgrade in performance".
Performance and quality at a price everyone can afford.
To optimize the flow in all of their heads, they have
spent countless hours on their proprietary valve seat
designs. These designs have been developed to work
along with their custom designed chambers and
runners. All of the heads are built using the highest
quality parts right here in the USA!
DeWitts now offers special LS series radiators
that are built to fit the stock mounting but
configured to hook up with a newer LS series
engine. High performance Spal fans are mounted
directly to the radiator, eliminating the need for
the factory fan and shroud. Relay and wiring
harness is also included in each package.
Connection sizes are changed to match the ports
on the new motor.
We also include a
connection for the
steam line and
install the fan
switch into the end
tank.
Things have changed…
No longer is Quality,
Performance, & Service
reserved for those with
huge budgets. Patriot
Performance makes the
products you need at the
price you want.
We are pleased to have Dewitts Radiators and Patriot Performance as part of our D.J. Racing
Program. Our racing success is not by chance, but rather by the use of quality products like these
companies produce. Thanks for your support.
Thanks to all our fans, crew, sponsors and friends who are supporting us in this
2010 racing season.
