Brooke Taylor with some Stangs and a GTO

Written by James Anderson Tuesday, 23 August 2016 12:12

Virginia native, Brooke Taylor, grew up going to the drag strip with her dad. In fact, she has been going to the drag strip with him for 20 years! That's right, the 23 year old has been grown up around burnouts and race fuel since she was just 3 years old. Now Brooke doesn't just go with him to watch, she actually brings her 1989 Hatchback Mustang and races it in two classes. You will find her out at Richmond Dragway burning rubber and racing her dad in his '69 Ford Fairlane drag car as well as a few other local tracks.

Besides having a 1989 Mustang that Brooke drag races, she is also working on a build for her 2008 Mustang. The '08 is in the process of getting a Cobra Jet Swap with Twin Turbo's! She is determined to push 1000 horsepower out of the beast, and will be doing a new paint job and new interior on it. Brooke hopes to also switch it to a 6 speed transmission and add 3.73 gears. Something tells us that her dad is going to have some trouble keeping up with this Stang when it's all done! Check out the picture below to see her with her 2008 Mustang as it sits now.

Brooke also had some time to pose with a Pontiac GTO in her ShockerRacingGirls Gear.
