powered by an LS (or current-generation LT) engine has a home at one of the biggest events in southern Kentucky every year, Holley LS Fest.

Year after year since 2010, there's something for car guys (and gals) of every kind – Drag Racing, Autocross, 3S Challenge, Show-N-Shine, Countryside Cruise, Dyno Challenge, Drift Challenge, Track X, Engine Swap, and Road Course Challenge. The following are overviews of a few of the most popular events taking place at Bowling Green – look for more to follow in the coming days:

DRAG RACING PRESENTED BY SCOGGIN-DICKEY PARTS CENTER AND ENGINE POWER TV
Watch some of the most powerful LS-powered race cars in the country battle side-by-side down the quarter-mile – or race your own car! Numerous classes are available, headed by the
COPO Battle At The Green
, which is just for COPO Camaros. These factory-built race cars come straight from General Motors with Holley EFI, Holley manifolds, and Earl’s coolers. Race yours or watch the thrilling action from the stands! Besides the top-of-the line COPOs, there's also a
Grudge Test-N-Tune
, where you can race your pals or go against the clock and see how fast your car really is. The
Late Model Heads-Up
category is just for the quickest and fastest LS- and LT-powered cars of recent vintage.
Street King
is open to any full-bodied vehicle (not dragsters, roadsters, or altereds), with numerous brackets from 8 seconds to 10.75.
Chevrolet Performance Stock
is a heads-up/all-out class just for naturally aspirated 1955 and newer GM vehicles with DR525 crate engines.
Drag Radial
is for cars with a single power adder (nitrous, turbocharger, or supercharger) that run to the eighth-mile and race heads-up.
Real Street
is also heads-up and is open to vehicles with or without a power adder running on 10.5-inch wide slicks or DOT 275 drag radial tires.
Rumble
is an index-based category open to full-bodied vehicles and run under an index format. Numerous brackets are available in quarter-second breaks from 11-flat to 15-flat. Finally,
True Street
is a heads-up class for fast street cars that also must take part in a special 30-mile cruise before hitting Beech Bend for the race.
