-- First of all, I would like to start this announcement off with a BIG "THANK YOU" to all that have signed up to show great support to the Dick Harrell forum. If only we could document the entire sport in this fashion; this site contains information that is a priceless tribute to Dick Harrell and drag racing history. Keep the posts coming, and continue to spread the word about our site to your friends and family.
We, in the Harrell family, are extremely excited to announce the official release of the Dick Harrell Edition Supercar, a 2002 Chevrolet Camaro. The "Dick Harrell Edition Camaro" will be sold exclusively through Berger Chevrolet in Grand Rapids, MI. & built by 1. GMMG, Inc., in Marietta, GA (the original builder of the 2002 Camaro ZL-1 Supercars and many other dealer-built Muscle cars). This exciting project brought together a team of individuals not seen since my Dad's days of racing with Chevrolet and the Chevy dealers he worked so closely with. We are working to recreate, in a production street version, their 2002 2. Woodward Dream Cruise Camaro. Chevrolet one-off Supercar. This incredible Camaro houses the new GM Racing Corvette derived C5R 427cu.in. all aluminum race engine, pushing approximately 580HP to the flywheel. Our new Dick Harrell Edition Camaro will feature these unique body panels that Chevrolet created for their Camaro, and the C5R race motor will be available through GMMG, Inc. with approximately 630 HP and will run on pump gas.
We have been working with Scott Settlemire, John Heinricy, Randy Wittine, Kip Wasenko, Matt Berger, and Matt Murphy very closely over the past six months to get this project to this point of releasing it to you, our website members and enthusiasts. Later, you will see photos of the prototype car at a GM Design studio in its clay stages, like all GM prototype vehicles go through. We are very excited to finally be able to release this information here first, and look forward to showing you more photos as they become available throughout the production of these Camaro's. An official unveiling date is in the works, and we are also looking at possibly delivering some of these 30 cars to Kansas City later this summer. Stay tuned for more exciting stuff.
In addition to the Dick Harrell Edition Supercar, we also have a new layout for www.DickHarrell.com. The new layout also comes equipped with our own Online Store and is the only store who's every item is licensed, produced or manufactured exclusively by the Harrell family. As of now, the store features Dick Harrell Classic Memorabilia as well as merchandise of the ever-famous War Eagle by Dale Pulde. Currently, some of the products we offer are Decals by Slixx Decals, keychains, posters, photos, as well as Dick Harrell and War Eagle T-Shirts.
We are excited to be able to offer products of other racer teams and such, from our site as well. If anybody has a product they would like for us to sell on our site, please shoot an Email to [email protected]. In addition to the reseller program we offer on DickHarrell.com, we also have the ability to offer custom e-commerce solutions where we host your site, and set up your cart/site custom to your needs.

In closing, we are finalizing the details of the Dick Harrell Edition Supercar by Berger Chevrolet & GMMG, Inc. There is no underestimating our uncontained excitement. And today, words spoken by the Dick Harrell team, "You can not remove the smile from our faces, and those that worked with, raced with and loved Dick as much as we do." Thank you, Matt Berger, Matt Murphy, and Chevrolet, for making this Camaro project come to life and for a great tribute to our beloved "Mr. Chevrolet" Dick Harrell.
