Great Bend, KS, May 4, 2013 - Patterson Racing has had its name in drag racing for more than 30 years, and it looks like that will continue indefinitely, as Todd Patterson and the Husky Liners® sponsored Chevy Cobalt won the NHRA Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series Division 5 race and reset a national record at SRCA Raceway in Great Bend, Kansas.

In honor of Great Bend's contributions to hot rodding and drag racing history, Kansas Governor Sam Brownback recently issued a proclamation naming April 27-May 5 as KANSAS SPEEDWEEK. The SRCA Dragstrip in Great Bend, Kansas has a rich history within the hot rodding culture, as the host of the first ever National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) sanctioned racing event in 1955.

Patterson and the Chevy Cobalt qualified 3rd in Competition Eliminator in the A/SMA class, won the event and reset the National Record to 7.89ET! The Patterson Racing/Husky Liner® Sponsored Cobalt was also the only car at the event to set a National Record!

Todd also qualified in Stock Eliminator with the Husky Liners® sponsored COPO Camaro in the No. 2 position in BB/SA at -1.07 under the index.

Over the past 30 years, the Patterson family has built a family owned and operated business based in Augusta, KS.

AUGUSTA - Allan Patterson vividly remembers his first day of competition at the Sunflower Rod and Custom Association drag strip in Great Bend. It was back in 1960, before he had an unrestricted driver's license, so he had to have his '40 Sedan towed to the track by his cousin, whose new car broke down in the process.

He cautiously drove his Ford into town and spent the night sleeping in it. Amazingly, he set a national stock class record on his first pass down the quarter mile - if he backed it up on a later run. Unfortunately, on his second run, the car sputtered halfway down the track and ran out of gas, killing his potential record in the process.

"I didn't have enough money to get out of town," he recalls wryly. He figures this weekend is bound to go better, when he and his son, Todd, and their racing partner, Bob Tyler of Winfield, go after an NHRA national record in their 2012 COPO Camaro at the very same drag strip.

The car is one of only 69 COPO Camaros built by Chevrolet last year to commemorate the original 1969 COPO Camaro, which also numbered 69 cars. Both versions were special-ordered (Central Office Production Order, or COPO) race cars.

The competition for the limited 2012 version was intense.

"It was quite an honor to be one of the people picked by GM out of thousands that had expressed an interest in obtaining one of these cars," said Tyler, who actually owns the COPO Camaro. "I believe we were picked to receive the car due to our commitment to team up with Patterson Racing and race the car at NHRA national events."

Only about 10 of the 2012 COPO Camaros are likely to see real drag strip competition, with the rest going to high-end car collections, Allan Patterson said.

Tyler, president of Husky Liners, sponsors the car, along with the Pattersons' 2010 Chevy Cobalt, which recently set a record in the A/Super Modified Automatic class, turning the quarter mile in 7.90 seconds at 172.65 mph at the Cajun Sportsnationals in Louisiana.

This weekend, the focus is on the CC/SA class record and the COPO Camaro appears to be up to the task. It is powered by an 850 horsepower engine built by Patterson Racing, or double the factory's conservative 425 horsepower rating of the 427 cubic inch small block V-8 engine originally installed in the car.

That engine and the Powerglide transmission, along with the factory racing differential, was removed from the car and carefully stored away after one day of testing at Heartland Park Topeka last year.

"The deal was do not blow up the original engine, transmission or rear end ... preserve it so 10 or 15 years from now, it can go back in and it will be a valuable collector car that can be sold at Barrett-Jackson," explained Allan Patterson.

"We tested it with the new motor and this car stood up and about turned over, so we put the wheelie bars on it."

Although it carries the number 18 serial number, the COPO was actually the fifth car assembled, so that it could compete at the U.S. Nationals in Indianapolis last year.
"We were runner-up in class to Dave Connelly at the U.S. Nationals," Allan Patterson said, adding "Our car was the fastest, but we red-lighted."

Connelly is one of the best Pro Stock drivers, noted for his lightning quick reaction times, so Todd Patterson knew he had to cut a great light.

So what kind of mark are they shooting for at this weekend's NHRA national open event?
"We're aiming for a 9.30 at approximately 145-147 mph," said Todd Patterson, who will be at the wheel of both cars. How do the two machines compare?

"Well, the COPO does a bigger wheelie, but this one (the Cobalt) sits you back harder in the seat," he said. "Of course, it runs in the 7s, has 1,050 horsepower compared to 850 and is about 700 pounds lighter."

The biggest challenge for the hard-charging COPO Camaro will come at this year's NHRA Factory Stock Showdown, which will be staged as part of the U.S. Nationals in Indianapolis over Labor Day Weekend. The car will compete against other COPO Camaros, as well as Ford and Dodge super stock entries.

"I think we can go 9.25-ish at the Factory Stock Showdown," a confidant Todd Patterson said.

"I can guarantee you one thing, we won't run out of gas," Allan Patterson said.

HorsePower gets behind the scenes access to the complete creation of a new limited-edition COPO Camaro. You'll witness the streamlined engine-building process and the meticulous car assembly of this rare Camaro designed for Stock Eliminator competition.

COPO is a true racing machine. It is specifically offered for off-highway, competitive NHRA use only. It cannot be registered, titled, licensed, or driven on public roads or highways. The COPO Camaro is designed to NHRA racing specifications, including a solid axle and a full chrome-moly roll cage. Inside, most of the standard sound-deadening and power accessories have been deleted in order to optimize weight for NHRA racing. Also included: a pair of racing bucket seats (no rear seat), a safety harness for the driver, a competition floor shifter, and Chevrolet Performance gauges.

See Bob Tyler, president of Husky Liners receive his COPO Camaro in 2012 from Detriot.  Today, his COPO is driven by NHRA veteran, Todd Patterson of Patterson Racing.

Las Vegas, NV (October 26, 2012) - A new champion was crowned at the NHRA Big O Tires Nationals in Las Vegas, Nevada, as the Husky Liners® sponsored COPO Camaro won class CC/SA.

The COPO Camaro was Chevrolet's high performance special-order system that was adopted by dealers to build high performance models in the 1960s. Now it's being used for races and Chevrolet has made 69 COPO Camaros available for purchase.

The vehicle was driven by Todd Patterson from Augusta, Kansas, coming from the Patterson Racing team. The race was held at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway and also celebrated National Breast Cancer Awareness Month by "going pink."

NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series Top Fuel Dragster points leader Antron Brown is planning to wear a pink fire suit in honor of the National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The issue hits close to home for Brown, as his mother-in-law suffered from breast cancer, but survived the ordeal.

“It was tough for her,” Brown said, “and we weren’t able to be down there in Louisiana to help her. You just have to pray and leave it in God’s hands. I can’t even fathom what it’s like for any woman to go through that kind of ordeal.”

While awareness of breast cancer was being celebrated, Patterson showed out at the race, adding to his legacy as one of the sport's leading engine builders and a decorated sportsman racing standout. Patterson qualified No. 1 out of 93 cars, coming in with a time of 9:61.

The racer and the COPO Camaro is scheduled to be at Husky Liners® booth at the SEMA show in Las Vegas on Tuesday, October 30th, giving fans a chance to meet the driver and see the vehicle in which he won the race.

The COPO will compete in the Stock Eliminator Class CC/SA. Todd Patterson of Patterson Racing Inc. has raced everything from Stock Eliminator to Pro Stock. "Todd can race any car you put him in," said NHRA announcer Bob Unkefer.

First introduced in 1969, the Central Office Production Order (COPO) Camaro was designed to satisfy the needs of Chevrolet dealers looking for high-performance models of the standard Camaro. The 2012 incarnation of the iconic car will be the quickest Camaro ever produced and is solely intended for the drag strip. "We wanted the COPO mainly because it represents the new generation of Detroit's most exciting cars," said Patterson.

The new Husky Liners® COPO Camaro was first tested at Heartland Park in Topeka, KS on August 19, 2012 with a time of 9.78 seconds. The next race will be back up in Topeka at the Div. 5 Pts Meet on Aug 24-25 followed up by the U.S. Nationals in Indianapolis on Aug 29 through Sep 3.

"We plan to keep the originality of the car for collector value," Patterson said. "After Indy, we will be removing the complete drive line and replacing it with a complete Patterson Racing NHRA spec'd 427 EFI engine, a 350 turbo A-1 transmission & converter and after market ECU to obtain maximum output per NHRA rules." The COPO with the new engine will debut at the NHRA Fall Nationals in Dallas, TX on September 20-23. The car will then appear in the Husky Liners® SEMA booth following the October NHRA Las Vegas meet.

Patterson Racing has been a household name in drag racing for more than 30 years. Together Allan & Todd have built a family owned and operated business based in Augusta, KS. Patterson Racing not only manufactures superior racing engines but specialize in high performance lightweight pistons. Todd, Allan, and their employees, have a combined knowledge and experience of over 100 years, which enables them to keep busy servicing the hardcore racing customers they have attracted through the years. This includes World, National and Division Champions to name a few all with Patterson record setting engines. Visit www.pattersonracing.com for more information.

Husky Liners® and Norris Andersen partner for Speed Week 2012

Winfield, KS - August 21, 2012 - With a top speed of 221.835 mph, Norris Andersen's truck wasn't always that fast. In 2004, he rescued the 1949 Studebaker from a salvage yard and brought it home to be reconfigured as a race truck. Norris now runs two big-block Chevy engines - one at 820 hp and the other at 1,275 hp. The Studebaker has won several speed and performance records, including 2009 World Record holder in the A/Modified Pickup class at 191.996 mph, and 2010 World Record holder in the AA/MP class at 219.331 mph.

Bob Tyler, president of Winfield Consumer Products Husky Liners® has known of Norris Andersen since the late 1960's when he was a drag racer near Bob's hometown of Concordia, KS. At that time, Norris was racing a green and white 1968 Z-28. In 2005, Bob started looking for a similar blue and white 1968 Z-28 that his classmate, Wayne, owned in high school. It just so happened that Norris had acquired this car from Wayne several years earlier. Bob's search ultimately brought him to Norris resulting in the purchase of the nostalgic Z-28. At that meeting, Norris commented, "I'm going to use this money to build an engine for the Studebaker truck and go 200 mph at Bonneville." Norris kept his word and joined the 200 mph club in 2010. And, several years later, Bob decided to sponsor Norris and his efforts. The Husky Liners® 1949 Studebaker debuted at Speed Week 2012 at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah.
