The Burnout Contest is one of the perennial delights of Ford Fest. This electrifying event showcases participants' skill in the art of smokey burnouts, creating a captivating show of power, control, and creativity. Contestants compete for glory, with fans cheering as drivers unleash their Blue Oval machines with reckless abandon, leaving clouds of tire smoke in their wake.

This year's contest, held despite persistent rain throughout the day, maintained its allure as both participants and attendees embraced the wet conditions. The damp pavement added an unexpected layer of challenge, with vehicles slipping and sliding more than usual. But the camaraderie among fans and drivers shone brightly, as everyone rallied together to support the event, proving that passion for cars and the thrill of competition transcends mere weather conditions.
