Everyone knows that every car featured in Jay Leno?s Garage has something special. And this is exactly the case with this special Chevrolet Camaro featured in the latest episode: it has been developed by Jay Leno himself and has been displayed as a concept car at the 2009 SEMA Show.
The Camaro Leno Edition features a pair of Turbonetics T-3 turbochargers that have increased the power of the 3.6 liter direct injected V6 engine to a total of 425 hp. Next to the extra power, the Camaro Leno edition is also featuring a new vented hood, front spoiler lip, special wheels and brakes, deck-lid spoiler and fancy new exhaust pipes.
So, what do you think, is Jay Leno pleased by this car? Why shouldn’t he in fact, it is his job! What the video and you will find out the answer to the question.

![]() Emerson Fittipaldi in his heyday |
In an interview in the Times, former world champion Emerson Fittipaldi?s outlined his five-point plan to enhance Formula One. Cut costs ?They spend a fortune in wind-tunnel testing alone. Reduce costs and the slowest teams would catch up and make it more even.? Limit downforce ?They need to reduce enormously the downforce in the cars, the only way to bring back overtaking. We need more mechanical grip so that you have longer braking areas, can set up the car coming out of a corner, get in the slipstream and then overtake.? Close the pitlane ?When the safety car goes out they should close the pitlane. Now it?s just a lottery.? Lift ban on team orders ?It is a very stupid rule. It?s why they are called teams, it?s why they have two cars. If a driver is leading in the championship, everything has to go in his favour. What is wrong with that? It?s so easy for teams to camouflage their orders anyway. All they need to do is tell one guy on the radio he has a problem with his brakes. They can bend the rules very easily. In the old days they would even swap cars, so why do we have this ban now?? Retain traditional grands prix ?These places are the soul of racing. The Americas are under-represented. We have Canada back, but there is no USA, no Argentina, no Mexico. We need to stay in the heartlands.?
