Here's some irony wrapped around a sledgehammer. If you'd read the news in the link you'd know T.Kelly's was 1 of the 4 involved. Here's what he had to say on v8supercar.com.au

Chevvy bow tie for Todd Kelly
Release Date: 29/10/2007
Holden Racing Team’s Todd Kelly will be a man with a mission as he travels to Bahrain this week for the V8 Desert 400.

Todd’s familiar red #22 Commodore turns black and gold to don Chevrolet’s famous ‘bowtie’ logo livery representing 10 years of Chevrolet badged Holdens exported to the Middle East.

For Kelly, it’s a dream come true.

“As a kid in Mildura, I always loved 1950s Chevys for all the flair and detail that was designed into those cars,” he said.

“I used to collect Chevy belt buckles and I’ve still got a drawer full at home – plus I’ve got ten V8 Chevy engines in the workshop for cars, boats and hotrods.

“Chevrolet in the U.S.A. always meant success in motorsport and I had the fingers crossed that Holden Motorsport would nominate me for this Bahrain exercise,” said Kelly.

“This is something that you look back on in future years and remember as being very special.”

“The last time Holden liveried up a special car was for Buick in China a couple years ago. My brother, Rick, drove the car, but I won the round in an HRT Commodore, so hopefully that’s an omen for Bahrain.

The Chevy livery is simply awesome and my goal is to not put a scratch on it,” he said.

“The driver’s suit is also spectacular and I might be forced to sleep in it.”
