Best In The West Award Announced for LS Fest West 2018


Best In The West Award Announced for LS Fest West 2018

Listen up LS Fest West fans! LS Fest event staff are pleased to announce the Best In The West, a unique new award for LS Fest West 2018 participants.

How will the winner be decided? We’re going to let attending media vote. Over the course of the three day event, LS Fest media have the opportunity to drop by the Holley race trailer and submit their choice for the participant vehicle they think most deserves the title of “Best In The West”. Any vehicle that has been registered as a participant in the event is eligible to win Best In The West, whether it’s been registered as a drag car, placed in the car show, or is out on the autocross, off road or drift courses. The winner will be the participant who received the most votes over the course of the event. Event staff will announce the winner along with our car show awards on Sunday afternoon. The winner of Best In The West will take home a trophy and a $500 product certificate.

How will you know if you’re in the running? If your vehicle has been voted for, a window sticker will be placed on the vehicle signifying you’re in the running for Best In The West.  Here’s an image of the sticker to keep an eye out for:

    Aaah – the Holley LS fest!

    Whilst Ford fans celebrate multiple Le Mans and F1 victories using Ford motors, the intelectually challenged fans of this OHV dinosaur congratulate each other’s total lack of original thought by putting it into everything from a garbage truck to a classic Ferrari.

    Now if you will excuse me I’m going to watch Cobra and Ferrari Wars again…

      Jesus f-ing christ… do your realize that OHV means Over Head Valve… how can you NOT understand that?!!!!!!!.

      You can’t understand the difference between OHV and OHC/DOHC, can you? Probably because the only engines you’ve ever wrenched on are Briggs and Stratton lawnmover engines!
