MUSTANG WEEK Comes to Charlotte

This was my favorite, 1967 fastback!

You might have heard of the Ford Mustang, the eighth highest selling American vehicle of all time at around 10 Million. It's just possible you've owned a Mustang too! In my case, it was a 2004 GT convertible, and in addition to surviving a tornado directly overhead, was a great car! What I'm trying to say is that Mustangs are all over the place, and the Mustang Week event happens in various places each year, and this week it's Charlotte NC. 

Just part of the schedule for MUSTANG WEEK

One of the minor events was an informal Cars and Coffee in Fort Mill SC, just outside of Charlotte, and that's where I headed this morning to spot a few Mustangs. From what I read on the Internet, around 5,000 cars attend this event, with about 30,000 spectators, so they were not all in Fort Mill at the same time!

The bigger events will be at ZMax Dragway, Charlotte Motor Speedway, and other big spots around the city. Many of these events charge admission, and include drag races, burnout contests, car shows, a track day, and lots more. For all the info check out their website:

One of the newer high performance models is the Dark Horse Mustang. Please ignore my legs. 

This Cars and Coffee was sponsored by Rally Point Detailing in Fort Mill, and they were supported by the great folks from Knowledge Perk coffee. 

Ford? Yes! Mustang? Yes! Cobra? Yes! GT 500? OH YEAH!!

Wild interior!

Nice wheels with Mickey Thompson tires. 

Thanks to Rally Point detailing, and Knowledge Perk coffee in Fort Mill for hosting! 
And yes, the coffee was great!
