| 2007 GM Racing Press Kit Available Online |
| The latest version of GM Racing's Press Kit is now online at
http://media.gm.com/division/gmracing/press_kits/07racing/index.html Based on media feedback, the online press kit replaces the former paper version, in part to make it a "living document" that we can update throughout the season to provide you the latest information. News releases are now posted in RTF format, a more universal format that can be used by virtually any computer platform and word processing program globally. The 2005 and 2006 kits are also available in the online archive, in case you need to reference past information such as historical and technical backgrounders. Series-specific CD press kits are available on request from the GM Racing trackside reps you work with in each respective series. |
| Corvette Launches Two New Race Edition Production Vehicles |
| Corvette enthusiasts in search of a unique ride have much to
consider this year with the introduction of two special-edition
models: the Ron Fellows ALMS GT1 Champion Corvette Z06 (first signed
special edition in Corvette's 54-year history) and the Indianapolis
500 Pace Car Replica Corvette Convertible. "Chevrolet and Corvette have a long, storied history at Indianapolis, and the new pace car special-edition commemorates that heritage with what will surely be an instant collectible," said Ed Peper, Chevrolet general manager. "Ron Fellows is also a part of Chevrolet's racing heritage, and he has been instrumental in the remarkable success of the Corvette Racing team in the American Le Mans Series." Marking his championship tenure with Corvette Racing's GT1-class domination in the American Le Mans Series, Fellows is celebrated with a specially prepared 2007 Corvette Z06 production model. This special Corvette Z06 is the first signed special edition in Corvette's 54-year history, and is the first Arctic White Z06 ever offered. Only 399 are planned for production: approximately 300 for the United States, 33 for Canada and 66 for other export markets. |
