Holley LS Fest East Event Gallery
By Evan J. Smith
This past weekend, car enthusiasts from all walks of life made the pilgrimage to Beech Bend Raceway Park in Bowling Green, Kentucky for the Holley LS Fest East presented by eBay Motors. Over the course of three days, racers, car show participants and fans enjoyed a grand celebration of everything LS and LT.
We say “everything” because the overall mayhem was next level with modern muscle and classics of all types stuffed with horsepower created by powerful GM LS and LT powerplants. It’s no secret that LS Fest brings out the wildest machines and we saw LS and LT engines swapped into all types of vehicles. Some favorites included a 1960’s GMC Carryall, Grand Nationals, 4th-Gen F-bodies, a Gremlin X, a 1984 Hurst/Olds and a quick Rambler.
Beech Bend Raceway Park is the perfect setting for racing and showing, the facility features rolling hills for car displays, a quarter-mile drag strip, circle track, loads of pit space, acres and acres for camping and an amusement park!
The event was a car lover’s dream with a Dyno Challenge, off-road racing, autocross, Road Course Time Attack, Burnout contest, Track X, Grand Champion, S3 challenge, drifting and of course drag racing. In addition, LS Fest East has a massive manufacturer’s midway with all your favorite companies represented.
The good news for NMCA racers, is the series will be heading to Beech Bend Raceway Park in 2024 (May 30-June 2) for the 22nd Annual NMCA Muscle Car Mayhem event. And if you’ve never been, you’ll experience Kentucky hospitality and the beautiful Bowling Green area.
