The first-ever Silverado ZR2, Chevy’s flagship off-road truck, makes its official racing debut in the Best In The Desert King Shocks Laughlin Desert Classic. Links between the production Silverado ZR2 and the race truck are significant as they share most major chassis and drivetrain components.

The Laughlin Desert Classic is part of the “Best In The Desert” Race series. It’s the same race series that Hall Racing has been a part of for the past few years and where the Silverado ZR2 Race Truck has been developed under the guise of “going racing”.

Chevrolet used the brutal off-road racing series to further validate Silverado ZR2 features, including the frame, 6.2L V8 engine, 10-speed automatic, transfer case, front and rear differential, front skid plate, and transfer case skid plates.
