2012 5th Annual LX & Beyond Nationals (OH) July 21-22
|
WHAT IS THE LX & BEYOND NATIONALS?
Founded in 2008, and based in Ohio, the LX & Beyond Nationals is the ONLY drag racing, car show and entertainment event in the United States completely dedicated to the Modern MOPAR Muscle and Performance vehicles. A grassroots event that began in Spring '07, as a meet-and-greet in a restaurant parking lot in Columbus, OH. This annual event hosts hundreds of die-hard enthusiasts and aftermarket manufacturers from California to New York, from Canada and everywhere else in-between. Enthusiasts interested in showing off their cars, testing its performance limits on the 1320 and learning what is new and available in the aftermarket attend this event every year. The event is open to the public and dedicated to the continued growth of the car hobby. If you own an LX/LC/LD-platform or any SRT performance vehicle (or in the market to purchase one) this is an event you want to attend and see what the cars and the culture associated with owning one is all about.

SRT has always been a highlight of the weekend over the years for LX & Beyond. We have been lucky enough to get to know some of the SRT engineers behind various components which make the idea of an “SRT” Charger, Challenger, Cherokee, Viper a reality. We chatted with engineers whose expertise ranged in everything from powertrain calibration, chassis engineering, vehicles dynamics and driveline engineering. In addition, we have had the opportunity to see some vehicles that never made it to production (Dodge Challenger SRT10) and some components that did make it into production models.
I still remember the very first year that the SRT Engineers came to LX & Beyond Nationals like it was yesterday. We did not know if they were going to make it for sure but when they did arrive it was an entrance that nobody will forget. A Dodge Ram SRT10 towing a trailer with the Dodge Challenger SRT10 on it, followed by a Dodge Viper ACR, Chrysler 300 SRT8, Dodge Challenger SRT8, Chrysler 300 Wagon SRT8, and another Dodge Viper. That’s how you make an entrance! In addition to the SRT Tour making an official stop on Saturday, July 21 at LXBN5 this year we will be welcoming the SRT Engineers back to Ohio again for LX & Beyond Nationals weekend. In addition, they will be joined by one of the Engineers from Mopar. All will be available for the much anticipated annual SRT Engineer Chat Session on Saturday, July 21 at 9pm. Thank you to SRT for this awesome opportunity! Where: Quaker Steak & Lube-Austintown 5800 Interstate Boulevard Austintown, OH 44515 LXBN5 Reserved: Pit Stop Patio Area
