Russell James’ Twin-Turbo 8-Second 2018 Ford Mustang GT
A friendly rivalry within a family isn’t anything new, but Russell James is taking it to a whole different level. James just wanted to beat his dad with his Mustang but that has spiraled out of control thanks to the team at Limitless Performance and Fabrication (LPF). Now, James is knocking on the door of the 7-second zone with his street-driven 2018 Ford Mustang GT.
Before James was even in kindergarten he was handing his father tools, and by the time he was just nine years old he pulled the engine out of his dad’s 928 Porsche. Playing with tools was just the beginning for James — when he was a teenager his family went to the NHRA SpringNationals in Baytown, Texas and that got him completely hooked on drag racing.
James’ desire to go quicker than his father spilled over into the build of his 2018 Mustang. Not being one to take things slowly, James went right for the kill by adding a twin-turbo kit from LPF to the car, and he hasn’t looked back.
