Default LSX Shootout Pics

Went to the LSX Shootout in St Louis this weekend and took some pics. The drag racing and car show were both excellent. If you like seeing late model GM cars in action I highly recommend going next year.

Never saw you there??? We were there Saturday pretty much all day.
Really good time.. lots of GM muscle there. The guy that built my motor was running his late model Camaro SS there in the true street class. On Friday he took his first qualifing run and stood it up on the rear bumper!!! Came down really hard and cracked his oil pan... It was awesome to see!!! Not sure if he got it going in time to finish qualifing or not?? Great weekend with a lot of really nice...and fast... cars!!!

Sorry I never ran into you, I was parked in the car show lot for most of saturday. Also saw the camaro put it on the bumper friday. He did land hard. I really enjoyed seeing the 5 or so CTS-V's running in the True Street competition.

We got there about 2pm on Saturday. There were lots of cool cars Ive seen that yellow car at a few differant shows in the missouri area, very cool car and very clean .

We were parked on the other side of the registration tent, we didnt even register for the car show. Mostly came just for the races and to look at the cars.

Ohhh and i dont think you will be able to go this in St Louis anymore. The rumor is they are closing that track down after this season.

Great pics. I've seen the yellow C5 with the TS fascias at local car shows. Does sound like a good event to attend.

My favorite part of going to these types of shows is being able to hear and see the cars in action, not just parked. A person had come up to me in the show and said he heard and saw me pulling out of the hotel lot on my way to the show, and was hoping to catch up with me at the show to see and find out what parts I had on my car. That compliment made my day, and his car was super nice as well. The silver T/A in the pictures.

That's my buddy's T/A. Car is amazingly well done. I was the Nassau Blue car right next to him. Only had it in the show for more exposure.
