🔥 The Drake Relays Car Show Was One for the Books! 🎶🍔

Y’all already know what time it was! The engines were revving, the chrome was shining, and the vibes were unmatched — the Drake Relays Car Show pulled up hard this year, and Des Moines came out in full force to represent!
Hosted during the legendary Drake Relays weekend, the car show brought the heat with rides of every kind — old schools, lowriders, muscle cars, imports, trucks, bikes, and straight-up jaw-dropping custom builds. Whether you were there to flex your whip or just soak in the scene, this event was made for the culture.

🎟️ RAFFLES & GIVEAWAYS GALORE
We’re talkin’ prizes that kept the crowd hype all day long. From gift cards to car care kits, everyone had a shot to take home something — no tickets wasted here!
🍔 FOOD FOR THE WIN
You already know the food trucks didn’t disappoint — tacos, BBQ, lemonade, funnel cakes… the works. Families rolled through, plates were stacked, and not a soul left hungry.
🎶 MUSIC THAT SLAPS
Let’s talk about the DJ tho — fire. Back-to-back hits that had heads noddin’ and kids dancin’. From old-school jams to current chart-toppers, the soundtrack matched the energy of the show perfectly.
👨👩👧👦 FUN FOR EVERYBODY
This wasn’t just a car lover’s dream — it was a full-on community event. Families came out, kids got their faces painted, and everyone had a chance to meet fellow car enthusiasts and vibe out.
🚗💨 Whether you came to show off your ride, snap pics for the ‘gram, or just enjoy the sunshine and horsepower — the Drake Relays Car Show delivered the full experience.
Already looking forward to next year? So are we. Until then, keep your ride clean and your playlist loud.
