Atlanta-based Georgia Power has partnered with Atlanta Motor Speedway to sponsor the Show Car Garage at this weekend's 5th Annual Summit Racing Equipment Atlanta Motorama. Anchoring the yearly celebration of anything with an engine, the Show Car Garage turns the track's Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series garage into a hub of activity throughout the weekend, filled with several of the country's most unique and prestigious award-winning custom vehicles.
This year, the Georgia Power Show Car Garage is highlighted with six of the esteemed Great 8 vehicles from the 2018 Detroit AutoRama. Considered the best new custom-built vehicles in the nation, the Great 8 are the final eight vehicles judged to be eligible for the coveted best-in-show "Ridler Award" at the annual auto show in Detroit.
Among the Great 8s slated to be on display in the Georgia Power Show Car Garage, vehicles include a 1934 Ford pick-up, a 1936 Pontiac Sedan, a 1956 Lincoln Continental Mark II and a 1967 Chevrolet Camaro.
Promoting its drive to save its nearly 2.5 million customers money on their monthly energy bills, Georgia Power is teaming up with Atlanta Motor Speedway to bring awareness to improved energy-efficient practices and maximizing energy savings at home.
