Mr. Gary Cowger

[NOS2006]

Is coming to Kettering University tomorrow for some type of speech/presentation and he's bringing some cars with him too. Nobody knows which cars yet, but I'm going to guess the Z06 will be one. Who knows. Should be cool though and I'll let you know what happens.

Brett, you going?

Is that the thing at SAE?? If so, I heard something about it but dont really know any of the details. It sounds like something I would like to go to though.

[NOS2006]

Yes sir it is. 7:00 PM. Be there.

He was a very cool guy. I didn't realize this, but he's an alumni of GMI/Kettering. He's been part of some major awesome things though and he loves what he does.

Anyway this is what you guys might care about:

1. When asked about an "upcoming high-performance version of a Z06" he said something like, "Oh, that rumored Blue Devil? Haven't heard about it" as he laughed and jumped real quickly to the next question.

2. Somebody asked if there would be, in essence, an equivilent to the Camaro off the same platform possibly named GN or GNX and Mr. Cowger quickly said "yes" before giving a smirk and quickly moving to another question.

Cool.

I am wondering what the GN comment means. Maybe he was just referring to a Buick, and not really a GN, though that is interesting.

How many questions did he take?

[NOS2006]

He took quite a few questions, but a good amount of those questions pertained to his own life rather than GM.

Oh, and he told us about driving the Z06 at 185ish around a track.. also that his last car was an STS-V while his current ride is a GMT900 Escalade.

Well the guy you want to get to know is Reggie Bell out of the S&M department.

Tell Regs one of "His Favorite" students recommended you introduce yourself.

[NOS2006]

I sure will. And I'll try to humor him. :AH-HA_wink:

Prof Bell is a G, everyone likes him, hence all the chem labs named after him.
