Hall Racing and Chevrolet Performance marked the 16th race in a row that the Hall Racing ZR2 finished at this year’s Mint 400 off-road race last Friday.
While just finishing a race 16 times in a row may not feel like an achievement for some, the conditions and off-road courses the ZR2 has competed in make this a tremendous feat. What is the Mint 400 like? Check out this quick recap video from the Mint Race Team.
Hall Racing’s ZR2 16 race streak is even more impressive when you consider that it’s built using entirely off the shelf parts from Chevrolet Performance. Anyone who owns a ZR2 could build out Hall Racing’s exact truck and with the addition of some safety gear, go racing on the toughest off-road tracks in the world.
We were at the Mint 400 last week with Hall Racing and had a moment to chat with Chad Hall, owner of the team for a bit about the program, the partnership with Chevrolet Performance, and the trucks he beats the crap out.
Congratulations to Hall Racing USA. For more updates on the team and ZR2 Performance parts, head over to our Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 Facebook Page.
