Fast Facts:
The Spring Break Jam is held on South Padre Island, off the coast of Southern Texas. It started years back as an USACi audio sound-off and later became a part of the Texas Heat Wave's Feel the Heat tour. The show is one of the first for the season and is held around spring break time. With a lot of people out of school or on vacation, it made for a good time just walking around the show. Everyone from the area, including the city officials and local families, comes out to the show to enjoy what it has to offer for the weekend. The participants are just as respectable to the island and the laws, as well, which makes for one great show where everyone including the town can have a good time and work together to put on the Best Spring Break shows.
Special Events:
USACi regional sound-off, Those Crazy Texans Motorcycle Stunt Team, burnout contest, hydraulic contest, bikini contest, live entertainment, after-party, and concert featuring Baby Bash, Tae, and The Dirty Worms. A special wet T-shirt contest was held at Club Chaos.

Check out the fresh paintjob that Chaotic Rods & Customs did on this SuperCrew. It has a very interesting color combo, and it looked really good sitting out in the sun. | 
One of the funniest things we saw was this midget car. This thing is tiny, and we bet it's incredibly fun to drive. |
Those might be some 17s on this S-10, but he keeps them real clean. | 
These flames are very traditional but were done just right. |
Since this show started years back as an audio competition, there are a lot of vehicles that still show up with killer audio setups. The system in this truck was one of the cleanest, and if you look at the screens, it has photos of its construction. | 
It seems like a lot of people who own these older Chevy trucks are jumping on the bandwagon of keeping the original trim and emblems. We really dig this style. |
