This is a photoshoot that almost never happened... for a good part of 2014 there has been a divide between many of the Mustang girls on Instagram(IG).  IG has become a thriving community for female automotive enthusiasts and the Mustang ladies make up an overwhelming part of this community. The divide left Shelby Wolf(@ashelbycobragirl) and Lauren Samuhel(@lil50monster) on opposite sides of the situation.  Both of these ladies are strong, intelligent and loyal women that truly have a love for cars and the entire automotive world.  Lucky for us, all of the women made the effort recently to get together and discuss their differences and put an end to their beef! Lauren said it best, "Sometimes negative situations can rotate the tires in sour relationships and provide opportunities for us to work together.  I'm extremely grateful that I and a lot of fellow female Mustang enthusiasts have been able to reevaluate each other and grow as a unit.  I think it's important to tap the brakes every once in a while and take the time to communicate. Someone you thought to be your worst enemy could end up being a huge blessing."

ShockerRacingGirls is excited to announce Olivia Hart as our December Featured Article.  This 20 year old, Kentucky girl enjoys hitting up car shows, especially shows like Mustang Week in her time off from waitressing. Olivia tells us, "I went to my first big show at the Mustang 50th anniversary in Charlotte, NC" and that was her gateway into the automotive world!  Her first car was a Mitsubishi Eclipse and she currently is driving a Ford Focus but has dreams of getting her hands on a 2015 Ingot Silver 5.0 Ford Mustang.  My biggest pet peeve is "when people ask me the same questions over and over again" Olivia added, so we were very careful not to ask anything twice! We are always curious to know how much modeling experience each new ShockerRacingGirl has and Olivia tells us "I have very little experience but with those experiences, I've grown better and I enjoy modeling."  She added that her first photoshoot was just this past September.  Olivia appears to be very comfortable with this 2015 S550 Mustang GT in this photoshoot by @MustangFanClub.  Click to read more and see Olivia with Chris Alfieri's Supercharged SN95 Mustang!

The ShockerRacingGirls started back in 2006 thanks to Myspace and some beautiful female car enthusiasts that were fans of ShockerRacing. It all started with us sending one of our fans, Zandrea, a ShockerRacing tshirt in exchange for a few photos.  Shortly after that we made long lasting contacts with Chromalusion Photography(North Carolina) and Jon Mulkey Photography(Las Vegas) who have worked with many beautiful SR Girls.

I have been receiving a lot of inquiries about becoming one of the now famous #ShockerRacingGirls lately and figured its time to post some details up here. Hit the jump to find out how you can become one of the ShockerRacingGirls.

Shocker Racing first met Cassidy a few months back on good old Instagram.  Cassidy owns Cnorr Vinyl, a sticker and apparel company that had been popping up around the automotive community on IG.  After sharing a few of her photos on the @ShockerRacing IG page, Cass contacted us about what it would take to be one of the official #ShockerRacingGirls.  We discussed the details and began searching for a photographer and a car to work with in the Pittsburgh area.  Finding a photographer ended up being the easy part as Shelby Wolf set us up with Fred Jennings.  Fred was highly recommended by Shelby, as she explained that he was really easy to work with and that he was especially helpful for models with little to no experience.  To view more from Fred Jennings Photography be sure to check out his website: www.1Camera1Lense.com

The hardest part of making this whole shoot happen was finding the right car.  We had quite a few nice cars submitted as possibilities for the shoot but none of them felt quite right.  I wanted to see something different, something that we had not shot with before and don't see a lot of.  Fred, Cass and I were all using our resources to see what we could come up with and finally Cass found the winner.  Cassidy had found someone who put us in touch with Paul who owns this beautiful Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster...

WannaGOFAST is a company that has been able to bring a new racing opportunity to the public.  In the past, very few had access to races such as the Texas Mile or anything longer than the quarter mile dragstrips that are spread all over the U.S.  With 600 plus horsepower street cars becoming commonplace in the last 5 years, the guys at WannaGOFAST realized that there was a need for a safe environment where car enthusiasts could let these beasts out of their cages!  This Saturday and Sunday, WannaGOFAST invades Bult Field in Monee, IL for the 2nd year in a row.

A couple days ago I was contacted on our Facebook page by a guy named Henry saying, "Not sure if it matter, but I have one of the old vettes that used to run with y'all."  Well Henry, it matters!  We always love to hear how some of the cars that have left the crew are doing!  Lets face it, too many of the ShockerRacing Member cars are currently in graveyards and we are always glad to hear that one of them is still alive and well!  The car he was referring to was Brandon's 2002 Blacked out C5 Z06 and he had included a photo.
