LSFest 2021 Photos: Here’s Our First Gallery Of Pro Touring Machines On The Autocross At LSFest!


LSFest 2021 Photos: Here’s Our First Gallery Of Pro Touring Machines On The Autocross At LSFest!

(Photos by Wes Allison) It’s on folks! Holley’s LSFest East 2021 is in full swing as we are starting day number two right now. But we had a rip-roaring time during day one, and Wes Allison was on sight shooting a jillion photos for all of you to enjoy. We’ve got a few hundred to share from day one, with more coming from day two as well. We’ll be sharing two galleries with you today and if you miss any of them, just use the link below to check out all of our LSFest coverage.

Holley’s LSFest shows celebrate all that is LS engine related, along with their newer LT siblings, and that means not only all the late model cars and trucks that came with them from the factory, but also every single swap you can imagine. And trust me, people imagine some pretty amazing things. Hell, there is a Dodge Daytona or Plymouth Superbird winged car here that is on a modern NASCAR chassis with an LS engine in it. No, seriously! It’s sitting in front of the QA1 booth looking all badass. It’s weird, and it’s cool, and it has an LS in it, which is all that matters.

Like I said, we’ll be bringing you all kinds of galleries from the event and they will include Drag Racing, Drifting, Autocross, Burnout Contest, Power Wheels Racing, and so much more. This is an event like none other and we can’t begin to tell you just how much we love it. This is the kind of event you want to be a part of. Check out the photos, and plan to be here next year!

Stock And Super Stock Extravaganza: The Class Racer’s Revival Comes To St. Louis – WATCH HERE LIVE!


Stock And Super Stock Extravaganza: The Class Racer’s Revival Comes To St. Louis – WATCH HERE LIVE!

While big money bracket racing has been growing with leaps and bounds the past few years, the Stock Eliminator and Super Stock Eliminator racers have been finding themselves with less and less NHRA and IHRA races to compete in. Thankfully, events like the recent Southern Sportsman Showdown and this week’s Class Racer’s Revival, are throwing big prize money on the table for those same NHRA and IHRA Stock and Super Stock racers. This is wheels up, no delay box, muscle car drag racing at its finest and we can’t wait to see more events like this one pop up. Thanks to our friends at MotormaniaTV you can watch all the action LIVE and FREE this week starting this morning!

This is NOT your average big money bracket race, this is a Stock Eliminator and Super Stock only event that is paying $25,000 to win each day and will also feature a couple different shoot outs and consolation races.

NHRA and IHRA cars are legal and this is going to be an event to watch. All NHRA and IHRA rules will be in effect, cars from the same class (ie SS/BA vs SS/BA) will run heads up just like an NHRA event. This is going to be rad! Seriously. this is epic racing right here folks and I’m only sad I’m going to miss it! You’ll have to watch it online with me.

SDBA Drag Boat Races Will Be LIVE Here On BANGshift Starting Sunday Morning!


SDBA Drag Boat Races Will Be LIVE Here On BANGshift Starting Sunday Morning!

That’s right folks, we’ve got more Southern Drag Boat Association racing coming to you live right here at BANGshift.com. We were live Saturday morning and will be live again Sunday morning around 9 am Central Time. We had an awesome time bringing you their Paris Texas event a few months ago and are happy to announce that their El Reno Oklahoma event this Saturday and Sunday will be LIVE in it’s entirety right here! We cannot stress enough just how cool it is to watch the drag boats hauling ass across the water. We’re talking 3 second 1/8 mile boats, and all kinds of combinations. Hydros, Jets, Flat bottoms, Pro Mods, Super Stock, and so much more. The racing action is fun, the scenery is cool, and the people are an absolute riot.

When we did the event in Paris, the welcome that we got from everyone at the SDBA, and the racers in general, was absolutely amazing. They treated us like family, fed us, welcomed us with open arms, and were so genuinely thrilled to have us on site that most were acting like kids in a candy store.

This weekend is supposed to be in the low 80’s, with great conditions for racing on the water, and I’m looking forward to seeing what kind of record breaking runs we might see. Tune in Saturday morning, at 8 am Central, as we kick off the racing action. You won’t want to miss it.
