GM has confirmed that some concept/ specialty cars and trucks will be here on display. The ZL1 Camaro and the 427 drag Camaro will be here along with the Tigershark Corvette and the "Aztec from hell".
Also some customer cars for street and strip duty will be on display.

Derty,
It will hold 2000hp. If the size is the problem the largest truck we have run in awd mode is my SS Silverado. Ext cab short box fits for sure. Anything longer than that we would need to measure. Your just hoping we tell you its "TO BIG"!!

I think that is to long for my hoist as our dyno is above ground. (Derty reads "MINE IS TOOOOOO BIG")
