LSX Takes Indy: 2013 Chevrolet Performance LSX Shootout

A 5th-Gen Camaro Spinning Its Tires

DRAG RACING SEASON! There is no bigger time than the Chevrolet Performance LSX Shootout! Once a year, drag racers from all around the country descend to the Lucas Oil Raceway at the end of the LSX Challenge Series.


From October 10th to the 13th.


Run under the National Muscle Car Association (NMCA), the LSX Challenge Series is a set of four events run through the calendar, comprised of five classes; Drag Radial, Real Street, All Motor, Rumble, and 5th Generation Camaro Challenge. The 2013 season was an interesting one. Despite the less than ideal conditions, the event in Atlanta saw excessive heat, but the racing has still been great.


Drag Radial points leaders Mike Brown and Anthony Manna were separated by 0.011 seconds going into round 1, and will see each other in the final round in Indy.


Brown, along with teammate Mark Koehler, started this year with twin-turbo setups, which propelled the two to, 7.074 at 209.04 mph and 7.078 at 208.94 mph.


There was a lot to look forward to at this year's Chevrolet Performance LSX Shootout. It took place at Lucas Oil Raceway in Indianapolis. The event is the most established and biggest LSX-only racing event in the country. If you couldn't make it, you can find coverage on The Block!
