How many times have you heard some bragger at a car show spout off a horsepower figure that sounds…oh, how do we put this delicately...a bit embellished? A touch untruthful? Complete and utter fertilizer, fresh from the bull? Ever wish you could just tell that joker to park it on the dyno and prove, once and for all, his claims? At LS Fest East, you can! HP Tuners and BangShift.com sponsored the Dyno Challenge at LS Fest East 2021. They helped bring Redline Motorsports, Inc. and Midwest Mobile Dyno’s trailer-mounted automotive lie detector to Beech Bend, and that’s where those who have the grunt under the hood can verify what they’ve got…and those who have more mouth than motor can get a quick, verified lesson in humility.

First, second and third-place top power figures for both naturally-aspirated and power-adder categories are eligible to win Holley product certificates, in $400/$200/$100 denominations, respectively.
