The Auto Fest at Cowboys Dance Hall Oct 19th, 2010 was packed with people of all ages. Over all River City Attractions enjoyed the car show but the peak of the event was when Flo Rida hit the stage and opened with "In the Ayer". Flo Rida definitely worked the San Antonio crowd with a few of his Hit Songs such as, "Club Cant Handle Me" and "Elevator". Flo Rida also performed "Turn around (5,4,3,2,1)" off the new album ONLY 1 FLO (PT.1) in stores & online November 30th! Click HERE to listen NOW!

Over looking the crowd we could tell everyone was pleased, especially the fan who got to keep Flo Ridas Gold and Diamond Watch. Kids and grown women join the stage when he played his Hit song "Low" and RCA got it on video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7JI-ggNo-A . ß Jessica Moos also seen in video.

Before Flo Rida went on the San Antonio crowd got to judge a Bikini Contest. All the girls who participated where beautifully built. Second place winner Raquel Stark received $100. However the show was taken away bye the gorgeous Jessica Moos. Ms. Moos a current BUD LIGHT MODEL, and HARLEY’S ANGEL won $500. River City Attractions was pleased to enjoy the rest of the events with Jessica Moos by our side.

Fans came to see many amazing, customized cars at this event, and that’s exactly what the fans received. Tons of talent across the Cowboys Dancehall parking lot, every way the fans looked, pictures, poses and flashes was all you could see. Thank you to all the contestants who participated, and congratulations.

As all contestants where amazing, River City Attractions, was drawn towards a big rig built by Texas Chrome Shop, that we would call " The King of Trucks." This 1998 Peterbilt 379-127 was huge, orange, and mainly chromed out to its fullest. It has 750HP, CAT Engine, and 18 speed, and YES! It is for sale. As we went up to take pictures of this truck, one of the crew members snuck up to blow the truck’s horn. Which at that time, we nearly jumped out of our shoes. The horn sounded like 3 freight trains all in one. Afterwards, we laughed and took more pictures. We spoke with the Vice President of Texas Chrome Shop, Raul Mendez Jr., who was very thankful to have a team like his, and for the support he’s had from the start, co founding with Roland Mendez. On behalf of River City Attractions we would like to thank and congratulate Texas Chrome Shop for coming out, and achieving 1st place in the 10th Annual Auto Fest 2010.

Many were blown away by the low rider bikes out on display. We talked with Mario Martinez, of Mystify Bike Club, and family. What he does is build the bikes, starting with the body. Mario started building bikes as a hobby starting early in high school, and his talent seems to put him winning awards all the time. Some of his works consist of Care Bears theme, Superman theme, including his most known bike called the "Mystic Mirage II."Congratulations Mario Martinez and family for achieving 4th place, and thank you for showing your talent off at the show.

Just when fans thought that the only vehicles were in the parking lot, they had another one coming to them, as they were encouraged to enter the dancehall. State of the art motorcycles were on display for the fans to enjoy. These bikes had the crowd in shock and amazement, as they passed by in awe of the unique styles, and custom paint jobs. We met with "Lil Mike," of Akuma, and he was kind enough to allow us to have lovely Bailey pose on his motorcycle. He also informed us that many models and celebrities have sat and rode this beautiful red bike. One of Lil Mike and the bike’s national standouts was being broadcasted on Monday Night Football. Aggressive Edge was the other team who builds custom bikes, which had 4 very unique bikes. We tip our hats off to both of these teams for there time and efforts.
