<p>Unfortunately due to the weather overnight as well as the remaining forecast today the 6<sup>th</sup> Annual LX &amp; Beyond Nationals has been REVISED. Many of the roads leading to the track are flooded or have standing water and the same is the case at Thompson Raceway Park. We are as disappointed as you are that the weather is not favorable for the event and appreciate everyone that made the trip out to Thompson, Ohio this year.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>LXBN6 Car Show will still be held TODAY, 12noon to 5pm at the Official Host Hotel parking lot, Hampton Inn Ashtabula, 2900 GH Drive, Austinburg, OH 44010. Dry those tears (and your cars) and see you at the host hotel parking lot. Mark Trostle is on his way and DriveSRT.com is here too. See everyone soon!!!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>For those of you able to stick around overnight, Jim Curtis, owner of Thompson Raceway Park has offered to allow the Modern Street Hemi Shootout Series participants to race tomorrow (SUNDAY, 7/21). Gates open at 9a, and it is $20 for a tech card. Stay tuned for additional details either online or at the track on Sunday.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>***CAR SHOW WILL NOT BE HELD ON SUNDAY, 7/21***</p>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">Once again, the world’s best Modern Mopars descended upon Salem, Ohio at Quaker City Motorsports Park for the 5<sup>th</sup> Anniversary of the LX &amp; Beyond Nationals event. As anticipated, this year did not disappoint. We welcomed the 2012 SRT Tour to the Buckeye State, led by John “Hammer” Palazzolo, along with new team members, Jennifer Schneidau, Sean Yoder and Rachel Miller driving the full 2012 SRT Lineup. Also present all weekend were SRT and Mopar Engineers talking to owners, answering questions and participated in our annual chat session which was a very lively and active discussion. Thank you again SRT and Mopar for your support and time!!!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">We saw Bill Schurr’s 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 surpass his previous record and put up a 9.17 @ 151.31 pass on an unusually cool summer afternoon. Cool temps or not, at that speed soccer moms and dads you better hang onto your groceries. Pretty sure that’s a world record, and we have no doubt that as cooler temperatures arrive this Fall he will be well into the eights. Keep an eye on this one!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, SRT and Mopar were well represented by owner vehicles on the show field as well as the drag strip. We also had some Classic Mopar in attendance. Hands down the stars of the show this year were the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 community which showed up in full force. Spectators were fed a healthy helping of 9’s and 10’s all weekend. Consistent does not even begin to describe them. Not to be left out, we saw Bobbi Kimak lift the front wheels on her Dodge Challenger as she left the starting line</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">As we close another successful season and look ahead to next year, we would like to thank all of our sponsors, friends and volunteers for making it a great weekend. </span><span style="color: #000000;">Take a look at our album below to see a little bit of what you missed this year at LXBN5.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000000;">We hope you will be able to join us next year, <span style="text-decoration: underline;">July 20, 2013</span> for LXBN6!</span></strong><object width="600" height="450" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="flashvars" value="offsite=true&amp;lang=en-us&amp;page_show_url=%2Fphotos%2Flxandbeyondnats%2Fsets%2F72157630430699858%2Fshow%2F&amp;page_show_back_url=%2Fphotos%2Flxandbeyondnats%2Fsets%2F72157630430699858%2F&amp;set_id=72157630430699858&amp;jump_to=" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="src" value="http://www.flickr.com/apps/slideshow/show.swf?v=109615" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed width="600" height="450" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.flickr.com/apps/slideshow/show.swf?v=109615" flashvars="offsite=true&amp;lang=en-us&amp;page_show_url=%2Fphotos%2Flxandbeyondnats%2Fsets%2F72157630430699858%2Fshow%2F&amp;page_show_back_url=%2Fphotos%2Flxandbeyondnats%2Fsets%2F72157630430699858%2F&amp;set_id=72157630430699858&amp;jump_to=" allowFullScreen="true" allowfullscreen="true" /></object></p>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">No more than 30 days ago to the date, the SRT Motorsports team completed a recent SRT Viper GTS-R testing program at this same location before officials and team members deemed the car ready for ALMS competition. Two identical SRT Viper GTS-R cars will race at Mid-Ohio as part of a limited 2012 ALMS season. The factory team aims for a full GT championship run in 2013!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">The 15 passes include exclusive SRT infield parking spots and entry ticket to the event itself. Your ride will be on formal display at the world’s first view of the SRT Viper GTS-R in competition. SRT will have goody bags for everyone that is parked in the SRT coral. Viper Club of America – Ohio Region will have a tent at the SRT coral with beverages and a place to get out of the sun.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">“We’re thrilled to return to the world-class competition in the American Le Mans Series with our flagship American supercar,” said Ralph Gilles, President and CEO – SRT Brand and Motorsports, Chrysler Group LLC. “The new SRT Viper GTS-R represents a rebirth for us on the race track. It epitomizes the best of what our new SRT performance brand represents and showcases the Viper’s natural affinity for road courses. Now the time has finally come to go head-to-head with the best sports car teams from around the world.”</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Three full-time drivers currently are signed to drive including Dominik Farnbacher, from Ansbach, Germany; Marc Goossens from Geel, Belgium; and Kuno Wittmer from Montreal. Ryan Hunter-Reay from Dallas will join the team for the longer endurance races. Additional driver and team announcements will be forthcoming.</span></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3487" title="2012-SRT-tour-kickoff" src="http://lxandbeyondnats.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012-SRT-tour-kickoff.jpg" alt="" width="614" height="327" /><span style="color: #000000;">SRT has always been a highlight of the weekend over the years for LX &amp; Beyond Participants. 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.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Still remember the very first year that the SRT Engineers came to LX &amp; 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 soon 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!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">This year we have the honor of being an official stop for the SRT High Performance Tour as at makes its second tour of the country with the 2012 vehicle lineup, which includes the Chrysler 300 SRT8, Dodge Challenger SRT8, Dodge Charger SRT8 and Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8. Led by SRT Tour veteran John “Hammer” Palazzolo it’s guaranteed to be a stop in Ohio that you do not want to miss!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Having the SRT Tour at LX &amp; Beyond is an unusual chance to see the 2012 SRT lineup side-by-side straight from Detroit and see what enthusiast have done with these very same vehicles both on the drag strip of Quaker City Motorsports Park as well as personalization. To say that we are excited to have them at the 2012 5th Annual LX &amp; Beyond Nationals in Salem, Ohio this summer is a major understatement. Finding out that we were officially on the tour schedule was like finding your birthday present in the garage the day before your birthday. In other words, we are having a hard time containing our excitement.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Last year, we had a chance to meet John “Hammer” in Columbus, Ohio during the Inaugural SRT High Performance Tour and watched the tour thru Twitter, Facebook and YouTube with the rest of the Moparians.  The SRT Tour is an excellent ambassador for the SRT brand and the Chrysler Group LLC cars. Thank you again to SRT, we look forward to welcoming them back to Ohio again.</span></p>
