The GeeTO Tiger Show

Jim Wangers didn’t create the GTO, but he certainly was responsible for building the mystique that surrounds the legendary Pontiac. One such program that fed the public’s hunger for excitement was the 1966 GeeTO Tiger Show. Jump ahead more than 35 years and Jim Wangers is at it again. Jim Wangers and a host of vendor partners reincarnated the legendary 1966 GeeTO Tiger in late 2001. In 2002 the GeeTO Tiger roared to life at Pontiac events across the country demonstrating its tremendous nostalgic appeal, reviving an emotion that energized Pontiac enthusiasts of all ages.

The new GeeTO Tiger is one of the most recognized GTOs within the Pontiac community. The Tiger continues to draw interest from fans and event promoters coast-to-coast. Thanks to the support of a great group of performance and aftermarket partners the GeeTO Tiger roars louder than ever.

Powered by a Butler Performance 505 cubic inches engine using an AllPontiac.com IA II block, this 3600 pound Tiger made a best 1/4 mile pass of 10.31 ET at 130 MPH on a Mickey Thompson 28x10.5 tire.
