Chase and how Muscle Cars is a part of American tradition
My name is Chase and my 1st Muscle Car was a 2004 Mustang GT. Now I drive a 2020 Challenger Scat Pack. Growing up in North Carolina my dad always brought me around all types of racing. I grew up around NASCAR, Drag and motorcycle racing which led to my love of American muscle. He also had a white ‘79 Corvette Stingray when I was a kid that I absolutely loved. When I was about 10 years old my grandpa got a white 2001 Corvette that he always told me he would give me. Unfortunately that never happened, and I’ve...
Mustang James lives up to his name
My name is Derion "Mustang James" and my first memory of muscle cars was my pop’s '86 mustang GT. That thing was a beast and was the first car that scared me. I started with a foxbody mustang in high school when I was 18 years old. Then I ended up in 94 mustang once my trans went out in the foxbody. Eventually I got the trans fixed and a few months later the engine blew. Then I put a down payment on a 2005 mustang gt. it was a great car until it was wrecked two months later, and then came...
LaNell and his track ready Corvette
I’m LaNell and I drive a 08’ Chevy Corvette. My first memory of muscle cars was my grandfather and his C5 Corvette. The power and the sound definitely stood out and left a lasting impression on me. I love circuit racing which is my current set up. My cousin who has a 911 invited me to a track day with him. Circuit racing or even time attack is a lot more affordable and fun in my opinion. You aren’t as likely to break parts as frequently as you are with drag racing. Additionally, your driving ability is a pretty big...
Nate and how muscle cars bring people together
My name is Nate and my first memory of muscle cars was my dads' friend's manual Dodge Challenger. That’s when I fell in love with MOPAR and the muscle car family. I drive a Challenger Scatpack myself. I love every second behind the wheel. I also receive a lot of attention when driving around the city. The car community is all about bringing people together who have similar interests. I’ve met cool people who I would have never come across if it wasn’t for muscle cars. Our community is getting close to being cut off due to the increased push...
Chuck and how mustangs made him fall in love with muscle cars
Chuck - My first memory of muscle cars was my dad’s '93 foxbody 5.0. It was a black hard top and even had a car bra to match lol. He also had a yellow Camaro. Some say it's either ford or Chevy but my dad just loved muscle cars! I grew up watching him buy classics, fix them up and sell them. My favorite car he had was a white convertible '72 Cutlass 442 with black stripes. Every boy wants to be like his dad and I’m no different. That’s why I drive a 18’ Mustang GT. I want to continue the tradition...
