Chevy power dominated the day and locked out the first two rows of the grid during qualifying. 


In the image above we get a look at the rear exhaust system of the No. 83. You can see the bumper pods and the exhaust pipe (center of frame, near ground). The rear suspension is also visible connecting to the center of the bodywork. On the left side of the rear wing you can see the Chevy-specific grilled endplates
