Holley LSFest West 2017 – Killer Photos From The Inaugural Event That Took Over LVMS!

(Photos by Cole Reynolds) – The hardest and most prestigious award to earn at an LSFest event is the Grand Champion award. In order to achieve this honor one must participate in virtually every aspect of the deal and not only participate in them, kick some ass along the way. The competitors here typically skew toward the pro touring world because several aspects of the Grand Champion chase emphasize handling prowess. You may kill on the drag strip and then eat donkey dung on the rest of the program and look bad. The Grand Champion at LSFest West 2017 was Mike Dusold and his Camaro is shown at the top of the page.

Dusold is an insanely talented guy who built this whole car with his own two hands. The body, the 1100hp turbo motor, the advanced and totally killer suspension system (which includes an IRS), the interior which looks like it came from a Mad Max movie, and oh yeah, the paint too. The car regularly competes on the Optima Search For The Ultimate Street Car tour and has won its fair share of accolades at places like Goodguys Autocrosses and more. Mike also happens to be a cool guy who is quick with a joke and has none of the attitude you’d expect a man of his caliber in the building and driving department to have.

Congrats to Mike on the big win…you earned it!
