Check out the latest Chevy High Performance magazine. Those with subscriptions already have it.

Hey man, Sorry you didn't get credit for that pic. Every time I start my computer that pic stares me in the face. Congrats on your pic making it to a national magizine.

Actually, it was photoshopped. It was all just a big conspiracy on my part! Faking the video was the hardest part! <img border="0" alt="[jester]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_jest.gif" />

If you read the article and the caption with the picture, you'd be led to believe that was Douberly's car beside the SAM SS, and that was the final round of eliminations.

The picture was actually taken during open time trials... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Yes it was photoshopped. I had to actually put less angle on George's car so that it would fit in a standard picture frame.

A new rule with the camera's for this year is to snap the photos at the largest possible size. That way we can possibly get some cover quality photos out of the deal! Of course the question will be who the crack photographer will be? It seems the pictures are taken by those with the cars that are hurt by the end of the year!!
