RACEY - 2016 MUSTANG GT

IT’S

MEMBERS OF THE STANG MAG FAMILY ARE MORE PASSIONATE ABOUT FUN AND INCLUSION THAN THEY ARE THEIR CARS AND THAT SAYS A LOT!

I fell in love with the look of the Mustangs when I saw them advertised to preorder in 2016 and thought they would be way out of my price range so I just kept drooling over them whenever I saw one on the road passing me by.

I came across Racey at our local car dealer being sold as a demonstrator model with a few modifications already done for a price I couldn’t refuse! That was in October of 2018 and I finally owned a Mustang!

I have gradually completed all the modifications to her as I have gone along, attending local car shows and getting ideas of what I wanted to do to her.

If you asked me if I thought I’d be writing an article for STANG Magazine for my car this time last year I would’ve said no. If you asked me if I would be writing it about a different car than the 2005 Roush Mustang I had I would’ve said hell no. I loved that car but acquiring this one reinvigorated my passion for car shows and events!

There are still a few things I want to do to her, but at the moment she is winning trophies at shows and catches glimpses from passers by so I am happy to show her off and see other people smile as much as I do when I look at her. It’s all about the joy of owning something that I am proud to drive and going to shows meeting new people and letting kids sit in the driver’s seat to spark their interest in these beautiful cars. It makes everyone’s day!

I met Daniel Ramey at a Beltway Mustang show and won my spot with STANG Magazine in their Carlisle Ford Nationals display. Needless to say I wasn’t sure what to expect being that I didn’t know the people attending and was going by myself.

Mods include OTT racing stripes, door stripe kit, rear GT350 style wing, front and rear GT 350 style fender vents, GT 350 style bonnet scoop, Mishimoto cold air intake, X Force stainless steel headers, high flow cats, 3” stainless exhaust, strut tower brace, Ford Performance 2” lowering kit, carbon accents on interior, stainless steel LED engine cover, stainless steel fuse box cover, Mishimoto stainless radiator overflow tank, stainless radiator cover plate, radiator filler panels, stainless oil and water caps, black badge kit, plus many more modifications. Also tuned by ESP Racing.

The STANG Mag family welcomed me in from the very start and made me feel like one of their own!

Members of the STANG Mag family are more passionate about fun and inclusion than they are their cars and that says a lot! I can’t wait to see what’s to come in 2022!
