It's refreshing to see a car girl named Shelby driving something other than a Mustang. So often, ladies named Shelby were named after the iconic Mustangs because their families were die hard Ford fans. Shelby Evans admits that her first car was a 2012 Ford Mustang GT but she upgraded to a stick shift C7 Corvette with the Z51 package and hasn't looked back! Hit the link to learn more about the SEMA Girl with a need for speed:

Shocker Racing is constantly on the lookout for talented and reliable models in the industry to help promote the brand. So we are excited to announce our newest ShockerRacing Girl, Shelby Evans. A professional model based out of South Carolina, who has been published in well-known publications such as Baggers Magazine, Gauge Magazine, and Super Street Bike Magazine. She has also worked for Procharger at SEMA and the PRI shows for the last 3 years.

Shelby tells us she got started in the automotive industry from her supportive father. She spoke fondly of him and told us he was very big in the cars and motorcycle scene and introduced her into the fast life. We are not surprised that Shelby chose a black, 2014 C7 Z51 with bright yellow brake calipers and the 7 speed transmission. Since acquiring it she added a set of Vertical Doors and of course a Procharger Supercharger. The Procharger puts her Vette at over 600 horsepower! Shelby shows off her stunning car with these images by photographer, Mike Smith.

We asked Shelby what got her interested in joining the ShockerRacing team, she told us, “I can appreciate two things like anyone else, beautiful girls and fast cars. That’s what ShockerRacing delivers.” We certainly agree with Shelby on that one! We do have a great line up of models to promote the brand. We asked Shelby which one of ShockerRacing Girls was her favorite and without hesitation, she praised a crowd favorite, “Bianca Owens, her body is AAAAMAZING!”
