December '04 - Russell's 2001 Cobra


On Wed May 19, 2004 I totaled my first Mustang it was a 2002 GT and my fist pride and joy. [Click for Pic] The 02 was the fist car that I had ever bought new and paid for totally on my own so it was a devastating loss to me. I had sat around for a month waiting on what I had hoped to be my next car but things just didn’t work out. Well as you can imagine I wasn’t the happiest person for a while till one day my dad called me up at work. He told me to go look at the Maxwell used car website. Well that is when I found my new toy and first SVT. Even from looking at the pics on their website I knew it would be my car. For some reason I just can’t stay away from the color True Blue. But then again who can it really is one of the best colors that Ford has ever used. As far as what I do with my car I found out the hard way what the car and I are really made for. On the first run not even off the line at SAR (San Antonio Raceway) I shattered the drivers side half shaft and blew off a radiator hose. So the next track that I ran at was the road course at TWS (Texas World Speedway). Both the Cobra and I did really well on our fist time out there. Needless to say I will be back and for those that are interested here is a link to the driver’s edge. [Click for url]
