Despite a broken intake rocker arm in Saturday’s afternoon race, Mike Kern and the #55 FuelClinic Camaro crew (with the generous help of several seasoned engine witch-doctors) managed to find a replacement rocker and fix the engine in time to compete in both Sunday races, taking 1st place in the last GT-1 race of the weekend.

From V8StockCar.com: Mike Kern picked up a GT-1 win on Sunday afternoon, surviving a brief shower that made the going treacherous. Mike broke a rocker arm in the morning race, but determined to make the next race, made some calls to local shops until locating a replacement piece. His www.FuelClinic.com crew quickly had the racer repaired with plenty of time to spare.

FuelClinic has been sponsoring this race team for over a year now, and with the help of Mike Kern and the team, we have been reaching out past the “eco-conscious crowd” to reach thousands of race fans, business owners, fleet managers, as well as the media with our message that “eco-driving is for everyone“. We also use the car as a test-bed for new equipment and ideas, recently “torture-testing” a new data-logger that may be integrated with certain FuelClinic accounts.

We believe that the information and services provided by FuelClinic can help everyone learn how to live their lives comfortably and still use less gasoline (saving money), help create safer and less congested roads, reduce the stress of jockeying in traffic, and reduce pollution and emissions.
