What was your first car? I bought my first car, a 1990 Mustang GT, right after I graduated high school. Its what started off my racing dreams. Big upgrade from my parents 1990 Toyota pickup truck I drove to school when I was 16.
Any significant memories w/that car? It was the first car I ever went down the 1/4 mile in. I still have my first time slip. 15.30 @ 89mph. Oh what a difference 10 years make.
What’s parked in your driveway now? 2005 Mustang GT (my daily driver) 1999 Ford F-250 (the tow vehicle) and a 2007 Mustang GT Twin Turbo Mustang Pro Mod racecar (okay, its not really in the driveway, but still…..)
Does your car reflect your personality? If so, how? Yes, I’m a blue oval gal all the way. My heart bleeds blue!
Favorite vehicle(s)? Ford Mustang Shelby & old 50’s Ford Truck
Favorite vehicle…if money were no object? Probably a regular Mustang with a budget to do my own modifications (ie turbos, cam, heads, oh my!)
Vanity Plates? If so - what’s on them? Not anymore…. but I had “BRING IT” when I lived in FL and my car was faster.
Must have car gadget? A boost controller! ;)
Favorite driving tunes? I love listening to some good techno…. FAST CARS by Hellbent
Favorite Hollywood movie car? That would be Eleanor…. 1968 GT500 Mustang
