Race Car Names

I love names on the cars as it harkens back to the old days. I still name my Mustang daily drivers. The last one I just sold to help finish up the engine in my SCJ was named "Jaden". It was an 03 Cobra that had what I consider the normal bolt-ons. I called her Jaden because in 04 while attending the 40th anniversary of the mustang celebration I made the comment while walking past an 03/04 cobra in the parking lot "it probably only pulley and exhaust" which would have made it a 500+hp. My brother told me we had become so jaded as to how easy it had become to make a lot of HP. So when I bought my 03 Cobra in 2006 I couldn't think of a better name....it went from stock to 540hp in 24 hours and to 700hp within a year due to needing more!

I always think the best names have a story behind them....
