Pocono Raceway, a big supporter of the show each year, will have a Kaulig Racing NASCAR Xfinity car included in their display. Unfortunately, due to the pandemic, there are no NASCAR Cup cars available for display.

In the GSVSCC booth will be the original No. 659 GMC six-cylinder powered coupe and later version No. 659 Chevy Vega that were designed, built and owned by Skinner and driven to victory at Wall Stadium by Bohn in the era of the 1960s and 70s.
