There was more than one double-take from drivers at the Miami Valley Career Technology Center parking lot a few weeks ago on a sunny morning. Automotive technology instructor Dave Jessup brought one of his personal projects — a 360-winged sprint car — to school to show his students. Then he fired it up in the parking lot.

Cruise'n with E-Rider car show
The car looked a bit out of place, with lots of hot rods and muscle cars on the scene, but the Corder brothers of Brookville continued to clean up and detail their 1934 Chrysler Airflow. “We haven’t had it out much this year; both of us have been pretty busy,” explained Dan Corder. “But this show in Englewood is always nice, so we got here early and found a good shady spot.”

Porsche Escape
There were a few more Porsches in the Miami Valley the first week of October, as the Porsche Club of America “escaped to the birthplace of aviation.”
The PCA has held parades for many years,” explained Escape organizer Kathie Hunter. “But parades are all about competition, auto cross, time-speed-distance rallies, judged car shows and concours, and they last a week. About five years ago, PCA came up with the idea of an Escape weekend, strictly social and fun.”

GM hybrids are new pickup line
General Motors' new full-size hybrid pickups now are arriving at dealerships, offering an overall 25 percent increase in fuel economy over the base V-8 gasoline-only models and a 40 percent increase in city mileage.
Prices begin at $38,995 (including freight) for the 2009 Chevrolet Silverado Crew Cab two-wheel drive and $39,365 for the GMC Sierra Crew Cab two-wheel drive.
So far, these are the only hybrid pickups offered. GM says they're eligible for a $2,200 federal tax credit for buyers who qualify. That helps reduce the extra cost of the hybrid drive-train to somewhere under $1,000, GM has said.
