Unlimited Truck Winner: Kevin Stearns Earlier this month, the Holley’s all-LS party took place in Vegas. This event was the “largest West event by far with 50% participant growth, 1,000 cars and large growth in vendor and spectator attendance” (LSfest.com). Over 17,000 enthusiasts came out to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway for three days of non-stop LS action! “The Terra Crew was onsite at LS Fest West once again and put on a great show for the crowd.

King of the Hammers 2019
The BDS team arrived in Hammertown a full week before the EMC race at King of the Hammers. A week might seem like a long time, but to prepare for this race takes months, and that last week is when the course maps are finally made public, creating a scramble to pre-run as much of the course as possible, all while tuning the truck for top performance based on the different sections of track that are being used each year.

An early morning photo shoot in the rocks showed signs of a problem in the power steering system. After 2 pump changes, 3 servo replacements…
