Full Throttle Glory
Alright, let’s take look back at the Holley LS Fest West 2024 Autocross event at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. It was a wild ride, with LS-powered machines tearing up the asphalt, from vintage muscle to modern speed demons, all vying for glory in a whirlwind of horsepower and adrenaline.
SENSATIONALLY SILVER
After one look at Jim Taylor’s Chevelle, we all tucked our shirts in, stood up straight and talked like we were members of the local country club. This silver gem is one stand-up, top-notch, upscale Chevrolet!
SLICK SLEEPER
Mustangs are usually not candidates for sleepers, because everyone knows Mustangs have plenty of power from the factory for their lightweight bodies. This example, owned by Mike Skiles, looks like an original ’69 Mustang, but as soon as the engine is fired, that logic is thrown out the window.
