The owner was (last time I met him) an Engineer for Saturn/GM and used his knowledge to build the car. The car was maintained/supported by the Saturn Performance Club (SPC) - a group of diehard Saturn enthusiasts who, collectively, have probably made every mechanical swap possible on an engine and run it on a dyno (only the computer continues to be a problem).
Chris Berube's car. Hasn't been used much in the past couple of years, but it's a good car. He use to give me a serious run for my money. We swapped track records and wins at Indy Race Park a couple of years ago. Yes, Chris does work for GM, and actually the last time I saw him was at Mid Ohio during the Grand-Am event as he was there working for the GM Performace Division. Good guy.
As Vaughn said, Chris' car sort of was the sister car to the one Jeff Lawton (posted above) is now selling, which was built by James Walker. I believe James also worked for GM with Chris when the two cars were built. I think that car even held the track record at Mid Ohio at one point. Also a nice car. It's too bad that James sold that car after the '03 season, as I showed up with my ITA Integra in '04 and never got a chance to run with him. In '03, the GLDiv had Chris, James, and Mark Rushbrook all campaigning SC2's out of Michigan. I wish they all would've stuck with it some more as all three were seriously competitive. Mark still has his, but like Chris, it maybe see's a track once a year.
Both Chris, James, and Mark all still lurk on here from time to time, so maybe they'll chime in.
