Cars and trucks from all over the Fordiverse will descend upon Bowling Green, KY this September for the ultimate Ford party! Holley’s Intergalactic Ford Festival is a celebration of everything and anything powered by a Ford engine! We’ve joined forces with the NMRA during their World Finals – their largest race of the year – to bring you the most insane, wild, can’t miss all-Ford event on the planet! Like other Holley events there will be drifting, autocross, 3S Challenge, drag racing, a dyno challenge, car show, burn out competitions, and more! Event/class champions will be crowned as well as an overall event grand champion for those that want to compete in multiple events. From wild Renegades to wheels-up Coyote Stockers and Vaughn Gittin Jr.’s  insane drift Mustang…to tire smokin’ burnouts and the Bigfoot #5…this event is the Blue Oval experience you don’t want to miss. The party is going down for sure! Check out the rest of the site and make plans to join us!

All to be held at Holley’s hometown track, historic and beautiful Beech Bend Raceway Park.
