Re: end of GM and drag racing ?
Truly a sad development. A guy like Fred comes along once in a great while. Mostly burdened with pro teams, Fred always was a sportsman racer's friend at heart. I hope that he finds employment in a field he loves that makes him giggle when he has to go to work. Maybe he will be snapped up by someone in our racing community (sportsman). We can only hope.

Wow! You mean racing might revert back to some grass-roots formula that some one could afford to build themselves???

Toast! Fred and his boss are gone and the National Sales Manager for Camaro says they have No race package in the works for the new Camaro. They would be pleased to sell you one.

Fred and company really DID NOT CARE about the Sportsman (Stock & Super Stock). When it came to the Chevy side he did everyhting in his limited power to the kill any Camaro special Car builds, he was a closet Pontiac man, not sine the Oldsmobile days has anyone really cared or encouraged heavy support for the little guys!!!

Re: end of GM and drag racing ?
well I know that GM has cut the camaro drag racing program and while they're at it they might as well delay the new camaro introduction. Here in michigan they have challengers and mustangs sitting on dealer lot at huge discounts...I've said it before I hope the camaro don't end up like the SSR and the GTO. Things are very, very bad for the big 3 and this isn't the time to reintroduce the camaro. Luke
