Dream Realized

LARRY HAMLIN I HILL AFB, UT I 2003 COBRA

→For the longest time, USAF Senior Master Sergeant Hamlin

wanted a 2003-2004 Cobra. After owning several Mustangs

in the interim, he was finally able to realize his dream with

this Dark Shadow Grey 2003 Cobra. When he purchased the

car it had a full exhaust and an air intake. Since purchasing

Takin’ the Street

BILLY DRISCOLL I WESLEY CHAPEL, FL I 2018 MUSTANG GT

→While his race car is down, the World Famous “Ticket

Taker” Billy Driscoll uses this 2018 Mustang GT to get his

speed fix. The 10R80-equipped ride has a Roush R2650

supercharger featuring the factory calibration, and it was

installed at a Ford dealer so the warranty is intact. To really

the Cobra he has updated the car’s suspension with Maxi-

mum Motorsports coilovers, a Full Tilt Boogie Racing IRS

kit, and Xtreme Stop drilled and slotted rotors with carbon

ceramic pads. His plans call for upgraded wheels, a JLT Per-

formance cold air intake, more boost, and a custom tune.

liven things up, though, the car has a MagnaFlow axle-back

exhaust, a Cervini’s hood, Spec 1 wheels, Nitto treads, an

MMD rear wing, and BMR springs. Billy doesn’t find too

many opportunities to drive the car, so it has just 3,900 miles

on it as of this writing. His neck of the woods needs more cars

and coffee events; maybe he needs to sell tickets to them.
