After all of the fun I had in St Louis, MO last year, a few days after the New York Auto Show, I returned to attend my second Midwest Easter Car Show.
On April 1st, I returned home to cover the 2026 New York International Auto Show. Held at the Jacob Javits Convention Center in Midtown Manhattan, this is one of the shows that I hold near and dear to my heart because it's the closest auto show to my hometown, which is located on Long Island.
On February 21st, I traveled to Louisiana to attend the 2nd Annual USO Car Club (Gulf Coast chapter) picnic. Not only was this was my first time attending this show, this was also the first car show I attended in the entire state of Louisiana (but it's not my first time in the state).
So how did I get here??? Last year, one of the few rappers that I follow on IG, Curren$y, posted a flyer about a car show. Mind you, New Orleans has been on my mind for weeks and I wanted to combine taking a trip there with a car show. Perfect timing...
Unfortunately my flight was cancelled so I had to rebook a flight in which I would arrive before the show ends. I had to move fast but I was able to have 90 minutes at the show. What did I see??? I am so glad you asked. Naturally, I've been to lowrider car shows in the Southeastern part of the US which means I was reunited with some vehicles that I've seen before. However, the majority of the show was completely new to me.
On November 21st, I made my faithful return to Orlando for the season finale of the Big Rim Car Culture, known as Florida Classic Weekend.
