Friday First Look! Goodguys 14th LMC Truck Spring Lone Star Nationals Presented by Old Air Products

It’s time to hitch up your ride and head on down to Texas! Goodguys is in town and bringing the Good Times to Fort Worth this weekend for the 14th LMC Truck Spring Lone Star Nationals Presented by Old Air Products at Texas Motor Speedway!

We’ve got a new date, new features, and a brand-new vibe for this springtime shindig in North Texas and we had a fun first day in the TMS infield despite some April showers. Car and truck enthusiasts are scouring the sprawling Pate Swap Meet outside the track, while inside we’re packing in some fine rides for this Texas-sized Goodguys party. We’ve updated the layout for participating vehicles and vendors, but the enthusiasm and energy are as strong as they have ever been at this event.



Goodguys CPP AutoCross Series racers get to tackle a longer track this weekend that uses a portion of the TMS road course and provides an exciting new challenge for these corner-carving machines. Show cars and trucks, meanwhile, spent plenty of time today cruising the grounds and checking out all the other incredible vehicles.


We’ve got a full slate of happenings to keep the fun times flowing throughout the weekend. In addition to thousands of cool cars and trucks to see and hundreds of vendors to visit, we’ll have multiple Nitro Thunderfest exhibitions, live music, great food, a smokin’ Burnout Competition, and our customary Saturday evening Track Cruise. And to top it all off, the dirt will be flying Saturday night at the Progressive AFT Mission Foods “Texas Half Mile” dirt track racing event on the TMS dirt track! This is one gearhead weekend you don’t want to miss, so if you’re anywhere close, come join us in Fort Worth. You’ll be glad you did!
