My long tech trip gave me an opportunity to check out a cool car show held in Mt Vernon, New York; a small community just north of the Bronx, which also at one time was the home of one of the most hard-core street-racing scenes in the country (Car Craft magazine even included Mt Vernon in an article it did on hot street scenes).

Several cool Mustangs were among the many customs and Brand-X race cars and street rides that were on display. Here are a few shots of impressive 'Stangs that made it to the show. If their owners are reading this, consider it your "how can I get my car in 5.0" moment..

It was great to be back in New York, my hometown, and I'm definitely glad to see that hard-core 'Stangbanging is alive and well in the old neighborhood!

Can't wait 'til next year!
