DENSHAM MISSES BY ‘THIS MUCH’
Gary Densham was in Australia for both
rounds of the 2010 International New
Year Series, guiding Jack Wyatt while
running his Nostalgia Nitro Funny Car
“Teacher’s Pet” against local Peter Leahy
and his front-engined dragster.
Denhsam was chasing the magic fivesecond number for his Camaro, but pulled
up just short with a 6.014-second pass at
240.59 mph.
“We just missed it by that much,” laughed Densham. "If we broke it then that didn’t matter as long as we
put on a show, we would just put it back in the trailer and fix it for its next run when we get back home, we
wanted to put on a show and that was the main priority.”
“That last run was perfect,” Densham said of his own performance, “it just ran really great so to miss out
that little bit was a bit disappointing but that is how it goes….
“I love coming here and I really hope I can come on down again, Harris was brilliant, all the Aussie racers
were, in an ideal world I would like to bring my big Nitro car back here and race these guys, but we will just
have to see – I hope so!” Fred Dwyer photo [1/20/10]

DOWNSIZED CHEVROLET CARS HEADLINE DETROIT AUTO SHOW
The Aveo Show Car may also be the next generation of the Holden Barina, manufactured in Australia. Former Holden design chief
Mike Simcoe is responsible for the Aveo RS’s styling.
At the first show since its bankruptcy, General Motors is showcasing smaller cars at the Detroit Auto Show. GM
has showcased the Aveo RS Show Car, a concept vehicle aimed at young people that is "European-inspired."
The new Chevrolet Cruze compact, already available in Asia and Europe, is due to launch in the U.S. later this
year. The Chevrolet Spark is the smallest member of Chevrolet's family of cars, due for introduction in 2012.
"Our new small cars and the Volt electric vehicle with extended-range capabilities represent cornerstones in
Chevrolet's gas-friendly to gas-free approach," said Jim Campbell, Chevrolet general manager. "We expect the trio
of Spark, Aveo and Cruze to be fuel economy leaders." (photos courtesy GM Corp.) [1/20/10]

SYNERGY CAMARO TO MAKE ITS DEBUT
The Camaro Synergy Special
Edition will be produced in limited
quantities from February to May.
Now known as "synergy green"
it’s a special edition for the hotselling car that goes back to its
days as a new model in the first
generation, 1967 to 1969. Back
then, it was called "rallye green."
"Synergy green continues a long
tradition of dramatic Camaro
colors," says Camaro historian
Scott Settlemire. "Some of the most sought-after Camaros are first-generation cars."

The 2010 Camaro Synergy Special Edition is based on a Camaro 1LT, Chevrolet officials say. It
has a 3.6-liter direct-injection V-6, with either a six-speed manual or automatic transmission. The
V-6 delivers 304 horsepower, yet gets 29 miles per gallon on the highway.
The Camaro Synergy Special Edition with pricing starting at $26,790.

SPEED TV TO AIR BODINE BOBSLED CHALLENGE IN LATE
JANUARY
(Front row L-R) Boris Said, Geoff Bodine, Melanie Troxel and Jeg
Coughlin Jr.
The fifth annual Lucas Oil
Geoff Bodine Bobsled
Challenge presented by
Whelen Engineering will air
in two parts on SPEED TV.
The Olympic-style portion of
the event, which pitted all of
the NASCAR and NHRAS
stars running two passes
against the clock on the 20turn course on historic Mount
Van Hoevenberg, will be
shown at 2 p.m., Sunday,
Jan. 24. The NHRA versus
NASCAR Challenge will air
one week later at 5 p.m.,
Saturday, Jan. 31.
This year's race featured
Morgan Lucas, Jeg Coughlin
Jr., Melanie Troxel, Shawn Langdon, Boris Said, Todd Bodine, Joey Logano, Phillip Morris,
George Brunnhoelzl III and Carl Renezeder.
The charity event supports the Bo-Dyn Bobsled Project, which makes bobsleds for the athletes
on the U.S. men's and women's teams. NASCAR legend Bodine conceived the Bo-Dyn Bobsled
Project more than a decade ago after watching U.S. athletes struggle to compete with old, used
sleds from their European rivals. Bodine contracted racecar designer Bob Cuneo of Chassis
Dynamics in Oxford, Conn., to create "Made-in-America" bobsleds for the United States men's
and women's national teams. Since switching to Bo-Dyn sleds, U.S. athletes have risen to the top
of the sport, winning multiple Olympic and World Cup medals in both two-man and four-man
competition. [1/20/10]

BASS PRO TO SPONSOR DILLON IN TRUCK SERIES
Richard Childress Racing and Bass Pro Shops have reached a partnership agreement for thirdgeneration driver Austin Dillon to compete in the No. 3 Bass Pro Shops Chevrolet Silverado for the
majority of the 2010 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series schedule.
“All of us at Bass Pro Shops and Tracker Boats are tickled to death to once again partner with
Richard Childress and the RCR team,” said Bass Pro Shops founder Johnny Morris. “Austin is a
promising young driver with a great future ahead of him. He also has a passion for hunting, fishing,
and conservation just like his grandpa.”
Dillon, 19, is the grandson of RCR president and chief executive officer, Richard Childress, and the son of Mike Dillon, a former NASCAR driver who is
now RCR’s vice president of competition. (photo courtesy Bass Pro Shops) [1/20/10]
PROPANE, NATURAL GAS MAY FUEL SOME FULL-SIZE GM PICKUPS; SILVERADO, SIERRA GET
REVAMPS
The full-size Chevrolet Silverado (above) and GMC Sierra pickups could
be powered by propane (LPG) or compressed natural gas (CNG) as
soon as 2012, says Jeffrey Luke, chief engineer for GM's full-size trucks
worldwide, in a conversation with USA TODAY at the Detroit Auto Show.
LPG and CNG can be less expensive to use than gasoline. They burn so
cleanly that the fuels are used on work vehicles indoors, such as forklifts
inside warehouses.
Conventional gasoline internal-combustion engines can be modified to
run on CNG or LPG relatively inexpensively. But those fuels contain less
energy than gasoline, so a vehicle has to have a bigger fuel tank to go
the same distance. Full-size trucks have enough room to tuck in a big tank.
Some trucks, mostly heavy duties, are already CNG or LPG powered. The GM standard-duty (aka "light duty") trucks can be converted by aftermarket
companies. Lukes said GM-built engines for LPG and CNG would have "hardened valve seals and so forth for long-term durability. You could have
trouble at 70,000 - 80,000 miles if you don't have the proper materials," he added. Lukes likes not only the lower cost and lower emissions of LPG and
CNG, but also the fact it's another fueling alternative: "These days, we need a diverse fuel portfolio."

In other news, General Motors Co. has
approved a major update of its full-size
pickups. The move will cost GM several
hundred million dollars.
Redesigned Chevrolet Silverado and
GMC Sierra pickups will feature new
exteriors and interiors, as well as better
aerodynamics and fuel efficiency. The
updated trucks are two or three years
away from showrooms.
The pickups have not been updated
since 2006, but GM, which emerged
from bankruptcy last summer with $50
billion in federal aid, wants to be more
competitive in that segment even as it introduces several new small cars and crossovers.
Industry-wide pickup sales fell 28.8 percent last year, underperforming the market, which dropped 21.2 percent, according to Autodata Corp.
GM's approval of a truck lineup update came quickly. GM's truck committee approached Tom Stephens, GM's vice chairman of global product
operations, on a recent Tuesday with a request for more money to update the lineup. Stephens took the request to Whitacre and the executive
committee on a Friday and the truck team got the money a week later, Fosgard said. ( GM Corp. photo) [1/20/10]

‘HERBIE’S HUGGER’ GOES ON AUCTION BLOCK
This 1969 Camaro Super Stock race car (Lot
S179.1) will be run through the Mecum Auction at
Kissimmee, Fla., at approximately 4:45 p.m. on
Saturday, Jan. 30.
“Herbie’s Hugger” is one of only 311 Camaros sold
in 1969 with the L89 396 c.i. aluminum-headed
engine option. Herbert DeSalve of Dubois, Pa.,
bought the car and soon traded up to a more
competitive L72 425 hp iron-block 427 engine built by Dick Arons.
Driven by Barry DeSalve, “Herbie’s Hugger” was a terror on the East Coast from 1969-73, winning several national events and setting NHRA speed and

CHEVROLET WORKING WITH UTILITY COMPANIES FOR VOLT DEBUT
A move to battery-powered automobiles may mean
less demand for gasoline, but can the electric grid
handle the change?
Jim Campbell, general manager of GM’s Chevrolet
division, is overseeing a brand that makes up 61
percent of GM’s sales and is planning to roll out the
highly touted Volt electric car later this year. The
Volt carries a lithium ion battery that can be
recharged at a standard wall outlet or through the
operation of an on-board, gasoline powered
generator.
“We’re working with utility companies to bring them
on board early so they can help us provide the best
ownership experience to consumers as far as
recharging their vehicles and using the
infrastructure. If (consumers) want to use the plug
in their garage they can do it, but if they want to
upgrade to a 240-volt outlet they could do that as
well. And then how much infrastructure do we need
beyond people’s homes? That’s why we’re working
with some of these utility companies: to prepare.”
The first lithium ion battery rolled off the assembly line in December. (GM Corp. photo)

Legal Cheaters…
The NHRA Winternationals of 1967 marked the first year for its Super Stock class, later to morph into the Pro
Stock category. But in February of ’67, this new class was launched at the Pomona Fairgrounds racetrack. It was
an auspicious introduction, save for the fact there were no existing National Records for these classes against
which handicaps could determined when matching various classes at the starting line. So NHRA was left to
establish their own “handicaps” as derived from factory advertised horsepower ratings into what were termed
elapsed time “indexes” for each SS class.
As might be imagined, this approach provided a somewhat open door to the car companies for making certain
their entries performed as close to these elapsed time benchmarks. Add to this the fact that Ford, Chrysler and
GM clearly saw the new Super Stock class as fertile rows of plowed ground into which to plant their upcoming
marketing seeds on branding, in the vein of linking on-track performances with new car sales. In a nutshell, that
was the landscape.
We now switch our focus to the Wednesday before Thursday’s kick-off of the ’67 NHRA Winternationals. The
NHRA called it their “press day” and had historically invited dozens of performance enthusiast media staff to
participate in a day of at-the-track activities, including opportunities to make quarter-mile passes in one of several
stock vehicles provided by the major car companies, notably Ford for that particular year.
You can visualize the scene that amounted to a collection of wannabe drag racer automotive scribes given a
chance to “dial in” a batch of stock cars and then compete heads-up among their peers for a modicum of prizes.
This, combined with track-side food and exposure to a few OEM seminars intended to flavor post-race coverage in
an assortment of magazines and trade papers, pretty much describes the format.
ADVERTISEMENT
ADVERTISEMENT
No, that’s not accurate. There was more. The presence of Ford and Chrysler at the event was significant by
virtue of having built cars transported to Pomona and stuffing them with highly skilled and notable drag race
drivers to become a part of the event’s mix. The likes of Ronnie Sox, Don Nicholson, Gas Ronda, Don Grotheer,
Ed Terry, Dick Landy, Hubert Platt and other such drivers were under factory contracts to drive these new NHRA
entries in the equally-new SS classes.

In fact, Ford and Chrysler (particularly Ford) had built cars for specific SS
categories, strategically placing them throughout the classes to help ensure an
eventual Eliminator win. Part of their intended success was based on the fact
that virtually all of these cars could perform below their respective NHRA
indices, so running near or at these limits would further help guarantee an
overall win. All combined, that was the overall landscape on the Wednesday
being described.
ADVERTISEMENT
But here was something Ford hadn’t contemplated. Hubert Platt (the “Mouth of
the South”) and I had become friends. As the then-Editor of HOT ROD
Magazine, I had gotten to know him because of his penchant for reaching out
to various media staff and befriending them as routine. That is not to suggest
Hubert wasn’t likeable, genuine or talented. He was all of that. It was simply
the basis for his asking me late in the day, just prior to when the track was shut
down and all other media events had been concluded, if I’d like to make a
pass in his factory-built Super Stock Mustang. As any fool could plainly see (I
certainly did), this was a rare opportunity to experience a factory-built Super
Stocker. While I don’t recall my e.t. in retrieving a helmet from the truck of my
car, suffice to say I was back to Hubert and his Mustang in short order.
The car was an automatic, so the risk of screwing up the transmission was
minimal. Hubert pointed out some of the other little nuances, punctuated by a
few details about how he perceived making the run. We adjusted the belts and
seat proximity to the steering wheel and he strapped me in. Keep in mind this
isn’t Funny Car land. If memory serves, the car’s NHRA index was around a
mid-10-second e.t. Hubert knew I’d driven quicker, so his arm pits weren’t a
bit damp from sending me off in his new racer. He departed to the starting line
and I began rumbling up through the pit lanes, void of any other cars in the
area.
As I made my way to the burn-out area, I noticed the throttle pedal travel
seemed a bit short. In fact, it almost felt somewhat restricted. So I groped
around between it and the floorboard surface, only to discover a small block of
wood wedged between the pedal and floor. Virtually without thinking
(honestly), I removed the plug and put on the seat beside me, all the while
idling up to the staging area.
ADVERTISEMENT
Turns out Hubert (not NHRA’s long-time starter, Buster Couch) had picked up
the starting tree controls and was inviting me into the staging beam. The car
left hard and, like on a rail, made a full pass. I drove it well past the last speed
light and began braking for a turnaround. At the moment, what I didn’t know
was that Bernie Partridge, a principle NHRA announcer at National events, had
just voiced my e.t. and speed over the PA system…which I obviously had not
heard.
As I made the turn onto the return road, two Ford passenger cars were coming
toward me on that same road… at speed. Out the window of one of them was
the frantically waving arm of Hubert, urging me to stop his Mustang in its
tracks… which I did. Hurrying to the car he breathlessly told me I’d just run
almost four-tenths of a second under his index which was probably going to
remove any competitive cushion he’d have in the Class and Eliminator. With
no prior knowledge, I’d virtually eliminated one of Ford’s key cars from being
competitive.
However, Hubert managed to wade through his class and ended up getting
beat in the Eliminator… by another Mustang. I never knew what happened to
that little block of wood. I
would’ve had it mounted
and sent to Hubert. But on
second thought, his
retaliation might not have been as much fun as the run itself.

BOWTIE THUNDER FROM DOWN UNDER
By Jon Van Daal
While the majority of North America has been suffering one of the worst icy winters in some time, Australia has been hit with unprecedented scorching
temperatures and catastrophic fire warnings. The nation’s capital, Canberra has not immune, but the recent Summernats, Australia’s largest street
machine show, saw scorching action of a different kind as Jon Van Daal explains.
Now in its 23rd year, the
Summernats car festival
would go close to being one
of the largest outdoor high
performance shows outside
America. Held over four days
in early January, some 1750
cars, trucks, street rods and
Summernats specials took
part in this unique
acceleration circus. I say
circus because it literally is a
ten ringed high horsepowered hippodrome. This
sees hundreds of entrants
pitting themselves and their
cars against each other while
completing a myriad of
automotive disciplines.
The beauty of the Summernats is that you can see all manner of cars including the Chevy based
products of Gil Stoken and Joe Psaila. Stoken’s blue ’70 Chevelle SS is seen here driving around
in the Supercruise and is in complete contrast to Psaila who won Top Sedan with his yellow and
white ’58 model FC GM-Holden.
A purpose built burnout pad
with massive bleachers hosts
the cream of the crop when it
comes to tyre screaming burnout competitions. This strip of asphalt also hosts a go to whoa contest to see who is the best at accelerating from a
standing start to stopping on a dime at the finish-line at the far end of the track. The one with the shortest time is the winner and you don’t have to have
the most powerful car on the property.
There are also three different grass events – Grab A Flag, Motokhana and Slalom. Unlike the white smoke that wafted all weekend long over the
bitumen, it was the brown bull dust that obscured a range of entries. While some thought it an excuse to carve up the grass others took it seriously and
recorded ever lower times.
In the Elite Hall the best of the best were lined up to go under the
judges’ scrutiny. Sponsored by Meguiars and the House of Kolor,
twelve brand new cars were revealed to the immense crowd on Friday
night of the Summernats festival. Star of the show was former Top
Fuel and Funny Car racer and team owner,
Graeme Cowin, who debuted
his street registered
1970 King Kong
Plymouth Barracuda.

Greg Young in his ’67
Chev Impala sedan is one
of the few competitors
who had competed at all
twenty three Summernats
events. Despite his copilot getting excited he
had to settle for a runner
up position in the Burnout
Masters bracket.

where there’s smoke there’s fire. As the ’69 GM - Holden sedan went
through its paces in trying to qualify for the finals, a fuel line was
ruptured and the car went up in flames.
This car is, dare I say it, “sex on wheels” as thousands
drooled over its wonderous lines and retro feel. It ended up
winning a bunch of trophies including the best of the bunch
– “Top Judged elite”.
“I don’t know what to say”, a clearly overwhelmed Cowin
explained. "I built this car for myself but to see it win all
these awards is just unbelievable,” he went on to say. I first
met Graeme in 1971 and in close to forty years I have never
seen him so lost for words – a great result for someone who
has won everything in Australian drag racing. The Hall held
the Top Sixty cars and this saw cars as diverse as a bone stock FB model GM-Holden to Cowin’s metal
masterpiece.
The Shockwave GM-Holden extended cab SUV added some real heat to a already blisteringly hot day. This unique vehicle still
retains its original engine and driveline so in addition to setting the world on fire he can park it once the candle goes out.

The ultimate prize at the Summernats is the Grand
Champion’s sword, and this award is one that is really
earned. In addition to doing well in the Elite Hall, anyone
going for the trophy must also do well in a series of driving
events. Unfortunately for the Cuda, with the engine cutting
out it didn’t do well enough to win this award. Joe Lore, on
the other hand, did well across the board and his Ford
Falcon XY sedan amassed enough points to hoist the
sword above his head. His gorgeous purple cloaked blown
and stroked 383 Ford was the hit of the event.
Talking of car displays, each day hundreds of cars were
displayed on the grass in the centre of the showground
arena. It was a smorgasbord of automotive artistry with
over the top street freaks lined up against rat rods and
beautifully restored stock-as-a-rock production cars of
yesteryear. The cars were not the only stars as many fans
wore unique outfits to express their love of a particular
marquee.
The GM-Holden sedan of Mark Nuessler was one of a number of entries vying to win the Burnout
trophy. Despite doing a solid job of frying the tyres here he ended up gyrating directly into the fence.
Talking of beautiful, the highest prize-money for any
competition is actually for the young ladies who take part
in the Miss Summernats competition that was sponsored
by Jack Daniels Tennessee Whisky. The large contingent
of ladies were initially pared down to half a dozen and
then the Top three with a stunning young lassie by the
name of Hayley Swanson from Altona in Victoria taking the
winning sash.
There were also competitions for a sound off in car audio,
airbrush art and even in tattoos. Rare Spares sponsored
the Tough Street Awards which saw the meanest of high
horse powered street freaks pitted against each other,
while at the other end of the spectrum they also sponsored
the Real Steel Awards – the best of the best in classic
metal street cars.
Former Summernats grand Champion, Anthony Fabris was again in attendance with his sweet looking
’55 Chev pillarless hard top. The adage of one’s favourite axe can be applied to this car as it is
continually being updated to remain at the forefront of street machine design.
There is no doubt that the largest contingent of cars from
any marque were Chevys or General Motors, Holden to be
precise. This has been GM’s Australian arm over the
years and probably accounted for one third of all the
entries on the property. While some of the cars on these
pages are easily recognisable others aren’t and when it
comes down to it a number of you will be scratching your
scones because the steering wheel is on the wrong side of
the car – a legacy of our British right hand drive heritage.
Don’t be fooled; these cars are just as well detailed and as
powerful as those in chilly northern climes.
The event was the brainchild of Chic Henry and with the
recent downturn in the global economy and after being at
the forefront of the scene for nearly thirty years he thought
the time was right to sell the business to new owners. He

contrary he was able to confirm that the Summernats will
be staying in the nation’s capital, Canberra. Close to 100,000 fans came to experience the best in automotive art and ingenuity at the 23rd running of
the event and like me left with a massive smile on their face.

The maroon ’65 Chev Impala of Frank Fdsadni was a regular sight touring the roads
around the Canberra Showgrounds. The car not only looked tough but had a crisp sharp
bark from the blown engine as it tooled past your correspondent.
Sedan deliveries have always been popular in Australia and this bright orange ’57
Chevrolet Belair of Jason Behringer is a fine example of some of the American iron
that was bought into Australia in the middle part of last century.
(Right) We’ve seen the flamed black ’57 GM – Holden utility vehicle of Sash
Miezczarek before in an unfinished state but as can be seen the car makes quite
a statement. This wasn’t lost of the judges either as the car won Top Mural, Top
Special Effects paint and Top Custom as well.

Daniel Smith has been a past winner of the burnout competition and as such his ’78 Chevrolet C10 took part in the master’s competition. It was a tough afternoon in the baking

An unusual entry was Ron Kirwin’s Chevrolet 789 –it’s a combo car using a Corvette chassis with a ’57 Chev front end and a ‘59 Chev rear end. The
judges certainly like it as the car won The Most Outstanding Car at the Show and Shine.

Every year at Christmas time the legendary drag racing brand known as Mooneyes hosts a
monster car show. It attracts all forms of gearheads including hardcore drag racers, rod and
custom, rat rodz and just cool classic cars. This year we sent one of Max Chevy’s ace
lensmen, James Drew, to Irwindale, Calif., with orders to photograph the cool Chevy cars he
saw there. He did a great job of that but being a photographer he forgot one thing. He didn’t
find out the names of the owners of the cars he photographed. But since the cars were so
cool and they were Chevys we decided to run this photo essay of some of the coolest cars
he saw. If your car is one shown here shoot us an email and we’ll run the photo of it again
in our Bowtie Bytes. So here’s a sampling of some of the bowtie cars that showed at the
Mooneyes Xmas Party.
Ah yes, Christmas-time in southern
California. (Donna Bristan photo)

1953-54 Chevys
For some reason a lot ’53-54 Chevys showed up at this event. They ranged from the shaved, decked and dropped
to the basically stock.
BLOWN AND BAD
This is absolutely the staff favorite of all the ‘54s at the event. From the NACA ducts on the roof, to the blown
rat motor filling up the engine compartment, this is a cool ride indeed!
ORANGE BABY
We believe that this is a ’53 with a ‘54 or ‘55 Olds grill.

BLUE IS BLUE
GREEN TUTONE
Shaved and lowered, and twin “spots” make this a cool cruiser!
Lake pipes and shaved door handles and some nice pin striping on the
nose sets up this ’54 nicely.
PURPLE IN THE RAIN
BACK IN BLACK
We liked the two-tone purple paint. Boss pin stripes on the hood and
the lights are a nice touch. Not sure what’s up with the license plate
though.
Tudor, slammed with nifty lakes.

LAND BARGE
Nice Nova with green flames and, of course, the famous Mooneyes
decal.
Check out this four-door wagon. Again with the Mooneyes decal in the
window. The wheel spokes are plastic taken from a display.
A prime pair of panel delivery wagon
WHAT CAN BROWN CAN DO FOR YOU?
TIDY WHITEY
We think this is a ‘34 to ‘36 Chevy panel truck. The dark brown trim
below tan paint scheme is really tasty!
This all white early 1950’s panel was the forefather the current HHR.
We like this one better. The “Fink U’ gassed us.

There were a lot of GMC/Chevy trucks on display we like this mildly customized example.

Corvette Racing program manager Doug Fehan has seen it all in motorsports, and he had to rely on
every element of that hard-earned experience to navigate through a tumultuous 2009 season. In the
midst of a global economic storm, Fehan steered Corvette Racing to the team's sixth win in the 24
Hours of Le Mans and the successful mid-year introduction of the GT2 version of the Corvette C6.R in
the American Le Mans Series.
Corvette Racing's 10th anniversary season was a year of transition. The championship-winning GT1
Compuware Corvettes secured a seventh win in the season-opening Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring
on March 21, and made their farewell appearance in the ALMS in Long Beach, Calif., on April 18. The
curtain fell on the GT1 era on June 13-14 with a GT1 victory in Le Mans, France, as Johnny O'Connell,
Jan Magnussen and Antonio Garcia stood on the top step of the podium. Seven weeks later, two newgeneration Corvette C6.Rs made their competition debut in the GT2 class at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car
Course.
As the team conducted a five-race test program in preparation for a unified GT class in 2010, Corvette
Racing posted five podium finishes and notched its first GT2 win at Mosport International Raceway on
August 30. In the series' final five rounds, Corvette Racing scored more team and manufacturer points than any other GT2 entry, and O'Connell and
Magnussen tallied the most points in the GT2 drivers championship. The season ended with fireworks at Laguna Seca as Magnussen walked away from
his battered race car after a high-speed crash on the final lap of the season.
Under Fehan's leadership, Corvette Racing has become one of the world's premier production sports car teams. An ardent advocate for the Corvette
cause and an icon for legions of faithful Corvette fans; Fehan received the ALMS "From the Fans" award in 2004, 2008, and 2009. In the following
Q&A, he looks back at the 2009 season and looks ahead to 2010.
Corvette Racing 2009 Review: Doug Fehan Q&A - Page 1 of 3 - MaxChevy.com
Volume V, Issue 1
January 20, 2010
: Looking in the rearview mirror, what stands out in 2009?
Doug Fehan: "There were really two parts to the season – our final races in GT1 leading up to Le Mans, followed by the debut of the GT2 program.
Our focus was and will always be the 24 Hours of Le Mans. When GM was going through its restructuring, our greatest concern was that some might
not understand the importance and significance of that event. It was a heartening moment when we were able to get past that point.
"In spite of many uncertainties, the team focused its energy on running the first round at Sebring, which we knew would be a great test of the
engineering improvements we'd made in the race cars. And then going to Long Beach, we fulfilled the second half of our mission, which is marketing
the Corvette and Chevrolet brands and representing our team sponsors.
"Everyone felt the importance of writing the final chapter of GT1 at Le Mans. They dedicated themselves to succeed, and it was absolutely amazing to
see them embrace that idea. It fueled their fire because they knew the team was undergoing its most significant challenge, and concurrently they were
designing, planning and building the GT2 cars. The preparation was almost as much fun as the race."
: And the highlight of the GT2 portion?
Fehan: "The win at Mosport. Watching the new cars' first laps at Mid-Ohio and knowing that we'd be competitive was certainly exciting, but the victory
at Mosport was overwhelming. It happened much sooner than we expected, and it showed ALMS fans what they have to look forward to in 2010 with
competition between Corvette, Ferrari, Porsche, Jaguar, BMW, and Ford.
"I think by any measure, the GT2 Corvette introduction was successful. Our objective was to focus on Corvette Racing's core strengths: preparation,
durability and reliability. We've learned that is what scores points – it's not always the fastest car that wins races and championships. In five events, we
had zero mechanical issues, and the cars were on pace. That was very encouraging."
: Surely one of the highlights of 2009 was your stunning victory over Jan "The Flying Viking" Magnussen in the Tour de Road
America Bike Ride to Fight Cancer?
Fehan: "That certainly ranks right at the top, but in a different category (laughs). We had some fun, and the race benefited a good cause, the Lance
Armstrong Foundation. I challenge the pit crews to improve continuously, and the bike race demonstrated to our drivers that there is going to be
continuous improvement in their level of physical preparation as well. I mean, they ought to be able to keep up with the program manager!"
: On a serious note, what were the lessons learned in Jan's last-lap crash at Laguna Seca?
Corvette Racing 2009 Review: Doug Fehan Q&A - Page 2 of 3 - MaxChevy.com
Volume V, Issue 1
January 20, 2010
Fehan: "Unfortunately the hardest lessons you learn in this sport are always safety related. You never want to put your safety systems to the test, but
when that moment arrives, it's very reassuring to know that they are validated. That's what we learned at Laguna Seca.
"Initially we had concerns about running an aluminum chassis, and we had concerns about how the roll cage was integrated into the chassis. The force
of the impact exceeded 50 g's, and yet Jan walked away. When we analyzed the chassis after the crash, the safety systems worked just as they were
designed, and the aluminum chassis did a marvelous job of absorbing the energy and protecting Jan from serious injury.
"The extent of Jan's injuries was a broken tailbone, which we attribute to the seat design. We have redesigned that part to prevent a reoccurrence in the
future, so that is the upside of the incident. Despite the severity of the crash, the crew had the No. 3 Corvette repaired and fully operational within a
couple of weeks."
: What is the status of the GT-spec Corvette customer car program for 2010?
Fehan: "We currently have two customer cars under construction, but we don't yet have confirmed buyers for them. There has been tremendous interest
in the GT-spec Corvette C6.Rs, and we think with continued improvement in the global economy, the interested parties will be able to make a
commitment. We'd be delighted to see more Corvettes racing in the ALMS or overseas."
: While there will be a single GT class in the ALMS in 2010, GT1 will continue in the FIA series and at Le Mans. What's your
perspective on the two classes?
Fehan: "A year ago, there was general agreement regarding a unified GT class, which we will see in the ALMS in 2010. The intention at that time was
to base the FIA GT1 class on GT cars, with limited modifications to the engine and aerodynamics. Since then, however, Europe has encountered the
same economic issues that we have faced in the U.S., and many members of the racing community understandably wish to retain their current cars for
financial reasons. Consequently some of the older GT1 cars will now be converted to the new regulations, including several privately owned Corvette
C6.Rs, and the ACO has invited these cars to participate at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. As the economic climate improves, I hope that the decision
makers will recognize the benefits of running one GT class at Le Mans and other venues."
: Corvette Racing will introduce a production-based 5.5-liter small-block V-8 engine in 2010 in place of the 7.0-liter and 6.0-liter
engines used previously. What's the outlook for the engine program?
Fehan: "GM Powertrain has completed the initial dynamometer tests of the 5.5-liter small-block V8, and the race team has conducted the first track test
with the new engine. We are quite satisfied with its performance level at this point. We plan to continue development and introduce the 5.5-liter engine
package in competition at Sebring."
: What are Corvette Racing's goals for 2010?
Fehan: "The ALMS GT championship and victory at Le Mans."

AMSOIL INJEN/AMSOIL INTAKE SYSTEMS FOR THREE NEW DIESEL TRUCK APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL has added three new popular designs to its family of Injen/AMSOIL Diesel Air Intake Systems, expanding its offerings for auto and light truck
applications. Primarily used to increase the amount of oxygen available to the engine, intake systems like these also increase power. Cold air has a
greater density than hot air, causing aftermarket intakes to improve combustion of fuel by causing the cool air to be captured from outside the engine
compartment. They also add a sleek, custom look to the vehicle while improving gas mileage and performance.
Two of the new Injen/AMSOIL Diesel Air Intake Systems are available for Chevy Silverados:
2004 - 2005 Chevy Silverado 2500/3500 6.6L V8 Diesel (LLY)
2007 1/2 - 2009 Chevy Silverado 2500/3500 Duramax Diesel V8, 6.6L (LMM)
Gains of 13-17 horsepower and torque gains of 30-32 have been measured.
Injen/AMSOIL Intake Systems feature AMSOIL Ea Air Filters with nanofiber technology. Offering state of the art filtration capacity, Ea filtration also
provides excellent protection and air flow. The design of the filter adds to the performance improvements, with the accordion-style filter providing 500%
more surface area for maximum air flow to the engine. The Ea filter element is cleanable and reusable, making a substantial difference in cost savings
when compared with conventional filters. Several other applications have been dyno-tested for horsepower and torque; vehicles and results can be
found at www.amsoil.com .
