ENJOY THE MOMENT TIM PERRY CAR OWNER CAR NAME–YEAR & MODEL INFO

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

SEMA 2022 – I have been with STANG Magazine for four years now and we have lived by the philosophy of “enjoy the ride and who you ride with”, which has always been my outlook in life. I just sum it up a little different as “Just enjoy life”.

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!

My name is Tim Perry aka the “Rocket Scientist”. Now, let’s get strapped in and in T minus 10…9… 8…7…6…5…4…3…2…1… Booster Ignition and Lift Off! Las Vegas was no different than any other trip with STANG Magazine. SEMA was the highlight of the trip but not the only place I visited in Vegas. The week was an experience starting with the Airbnb that we stayed in. The backyard faced the runway at Nellis Air Force base. So, every morning we woke to the sound of fighter jets taxiing to the runway and taking off for the daily sorties. Nellis AFB is also the home of the Thunderbirds, and they were in town and prepping for an upcoming show. It was awesome!

Prior to the beginning of SEMA, we had a few days to explore Las Vegas. Fremont street was incredible. If you have never been there, it’s a must see when in Vegas. Walking around there with the Viva Vision light show in coordination with mu-

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.

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

WHAT…

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!

sic was an incredible sight to see. The street was full of people in costumes, different acts, three bands spaced out around the block and the religious people running around trying to save our souls from the depravity. It was a great experience. We saw a couple of museums along the way. The Mob Museum went through the sorted history of Las Vegas and its connection to organized crime. The National Atomic Testing Museum was interesting in that it had on display mockups for the first two atomic bombs and its history. It goes through the progression of both above ground and below ground detonation. Both are a must see when in Vegas.

For car enthusiasts, there are the Counts Customs and Shelby Enterprises. Both places had some beautiful cars. The first thing you notice when you go to see Shelby are the covered car trailers bringing cars to the shop for customization and the cars being shipped back to some lucky owner. Carroll Shelby knew how to market, when you enter the building all you see is merchandise of all types. Looking across the room there are large windows showing off the garage and all the cars that are being modified. Then there are the cars on dis-
