Book a ride in our 500+ hp V8 Mustang GT convertible! Since 1964 Mustangs were born to be saddled up and ridden and for owner and beast to live life to the fullest, with passion, and excitement. It is a wild beast, always pawing to get out, not designed to be let out once in a blue moon! Let Mark and “RIDEV8” ignite your spark in life, and cars, with up to three passengers in your group.
1/2-hour “Pony Express” – A short blast around the back roads of Russell.
