Nominate A TechnicianAnyone who's owned an EFI GM performance vehicle can tell horror stories about having a problem, taking it to the wrong shop, and pulling their hair out when the local mouth-breathing mechanic makes things even worse. Thankfully, you eventually find an excellent tech and the rest is history. We'd like to know who your favorite EFI GM specialists are, and whether they're whizzes at general repair, tuning gurus, or aces that handle a specific area like rear gears, chassis, or suspension. It's time for the guys in the back room to get some glory; email your choices, their specialties, and how they impressed you, to rick.jensen@primedia.com.

New GMHTPArt TeamThe powers that be have recently moved our art direction to the East Coast, and blessed the Jersey office with a crack art staff: Group Art Director, Perfomance Automotive Group Brendan Moran and GMHTP Art Director Katherine Herbasz. Brendan hails from Brooklyn, while Katherine is a Canadian turned Jersey girl. They are hard at work updating our look, which you can start to see in this issue. Both are very talented, and as you can tell from this photo, they possess the same stupid sense of humor needed to fit in around here.
Department Of CorrectionsOn page 65 of the April '07 issue, you might be wondering about that Corvette interior shot for Noel Jusino's '02 WS6. That, of course, was the wrong photo-Noel's interior photo was misplaced. Here is the correct one.
In our February '07 GS Nationals coverage, pages 75 and 78 have an incorrect spelling of David Roland's name. David emailed us and said that he qualified Eleventh, finished Third, and eventually was crowned runner-up when the winner of the Super 16 Turbo race was disqualified.
