Forget fireworks.
This Independence Day, Texas celebrated with a pair of Bugatti Chirons, three helicopters, a private ranch, and cowboys riding shotgun in McLarens.
It was part car show, part aviation event, and fully Texan.
The Lone Star Supercars event, hosted by the Exotics Network in partnership with The Double R Ranch brought together exotic machines, aviation thrills, and good old-fashioned Texas flair.

Beyond the noise and horsepower, the event helped raise awareness for animal conservation and wildlife preservation.
It’s no surprise crowds came out in force for the celebration.
The centerpiece of the event was the jaw-dropping supercar lineup.
Two Bugatti Chiron Super Sports, a rare McLaren P1 HDK, multiple McLaren 765LTs, Ferrari SF90s, Aventadors, GT3 RSs, and more.
Local legends like ATX Exotics were in attendance, as crews and collectors gathered to admire the dozens of high-end machines parked across the sprawling ranch.
From custom wheels to track-only builds, there was something to take-in from every angle.
But in larger-than-life Texas fashion, this wasn’t just about the cars.
Overhead, three helicopters circled the skies performing low-altitude flyovers that turned the day into an impromptu aviation spectacle.
One chopper was grounded due to maintenance issues, but even that didn’t dull the show.
Adding to the chaos was some genuine horse power meeting horsepower as cowboys showed up riding shotgun in supercars.
A collision of car culture and cowboy grit that only Texas could pull off.
The whole thing took place at the private estate of Shannon Ralston, the proud owner of both aforementioned Chirons and the P1 HDK.
Shannon’s passion for cars and community helped turn a private ranch into the wildest supercar party in the state.
From Bugattis and burnout smoke to helicopters buzzing over cowboy hats, this was a Texas Independence Day party like no other.
And if this is how Texas celebrates freedom, sign us up.
