The Buick GS Nationals is the oldest and largest gathering of Flint muscle cars in the world and it is happening this weekend (May 15-17) at Beech Bend Raceway in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
For more than 40 years, the Buick GS Nationals has been the place to race or show your GS, Grand National, or any other Buick. Test and tune, drag racing, a swap meet and a car show make the GS Nationals a true must-attend event, but there are some added twists this year. How about a GMC Typhoon vs. Cyclone Shootout? Yes, with classes for street and modified vehicles, plus a rental-car race if your Buick wasn’t ready in time.
If you love ’80s muscle, there will be dozens of Grand Nationals, T-Types and other turbocharged V6s running wild in Bowling Green. We'll be covering the full event, too, but we recommend attending.
The test and tune kicked off Wednesday and continues today, while the car show and drag race qualifying start Friday. Final eliminations are Saturday.
