LAS VEGAS, NV – A San Angelo man earned the title of 2023 Lowrider of the Year after winning the 46th Annual Las Vegas Super Show with a car he modified here.

Local car enthusiast Ray Canales, on October 1, 2023, won the car show for the second year in a row.

A lowrider or low rider is a customized car with a lowered body that emerged among Mexican American youth in the 1940s. Lowrider also refers to the driver of the car and their participation in lowrider car clubs, which remain a part of Chicano culture and have since expanded internationally according to Wikipedia. 

This title is given to the competitor with the nicest lowrider in the country. This marks the second consecutive year that Canales has won the contest.
