Drag Race

This is where the quickest cars at LS Fest West battle it out in side-by-side competition on The Strip at LVMS! Experience the ground-pounding action from some of the fastest LS and current generation LT-powered cars in The West.

Each Participant Registration includes two (2) event passes - one for the Registered Participant (Driver) and one for a Crew Member OR Guest. All Crew Members MUST complete the waiver and present a state-issued ID at Check-In to receive Crew Member wristbands. Crew Member passes do NOT have a QR code. All Crew Member Passes are included with the Registered Participant's QR code (received after registration is completed) and all Crew Members must arrive with the Participant to receive credentials.

There will be a tire changer for those who end up needing to install a fresh pair to continue their donut pit, drifting, or drag racing efforts through the course of the weekend. That service will be provided by Ted Wiens Tire & Auto. A small fee will apply. Racers will be responsible for their old tires.

GRUDGE TEST-N-TUNE

This is a no-payout class that is all about just having fun! This class is perfect for those who are looking for a Saturday night 'fun run' class just like they have at their home track. Team up against a friend or race against yourself and the clock. All vehicles must be powered by an LS, LT (current generation), or LLT style engine.

Perhaps your car wouldn't be competitive in any other class. Maybe you're learning to drive a newly developed setup. Grudge Test-N-Tune is ideal for any of those scenarios. The class will be run throughout the entire weekend and is only available to competitors who are not competing in another class during the event.
