Chevy Colorado truck in GT ?
 
I may be overlooking it but I do not see the Colorado truck listed. Do we know of anyone running a Colorado in SS GT?

PS, the Colorado began production in 2004

I have never seen or heard of one running. They would make a sweet looking SSer. However, if it is not in the classification guide it cannot be run. I am sure it could be added, but you would have to talk to the right person at Chevrolet and get them to send in specifications.

Jimmy, that is some hoop jumping, Do you have any suggestion who can do that?

I think in the rulebook it has a couple lines about, racing a V8 in a car. I believe that it originally had to have at least a 6 cylinder to be considered for V8 conversion and the Canyon and Colorado only had 4 or 5. I've thought that the Colorado would be sweet, also.

You could order them with a V8 do not know what year that started. Tom

i.m not sure if it even matters , but I think the 5.3 v-8 was in 4dr. 4wd. models only. a Colorado would be cool looking. but I think it would be at an aero disadvantage against the s10. the Colorado has a bit more frontal area, and the s-10's are much smaller than most realize

Mark,

I think you are correct. In addition. the S-10 is 108 wheel base were the Colorado is 111

X2. The S-10 is the one to build.
