Both General Motors and Ford are making big inroads into the aftermarket world for high-performance parts, and now GM
Performance Parts is taking it to the streets– literally. The company has put together a mobile exhibit of
its offerings called the GM Performance Parts Power Shop, which is travelling the country this summer making
appearances at various racing and car-oriented events.

One of the stars of the exhibit is a
fully-operational display of the GMPP ZZ572 big-block crate engine – 720 hp of off-the-shelf motivation. The drag
racing and hot rod-oriented display also features a brand-new drag racing simulator that promises the “full
sensory experience of rocketing down the quarter-mile.”

The Power Shop debuted this past weekend at
“The Year One Experience” at Road Atlanta in Braselton, Georgia.
