Life in the Fast Lane
Dallas, Texas/Whippany, NJ (PRWEB) September 22, 2005 -- Shelly Caolo is a dedicated mother, wife, and business professional who owns her own company and serves as Vice President of Marketing for American PPO, Inc. At first glance, you do not get the impression that this Dallas born-and-bred Texas beauty would have a fascination with cars or the incredible need for speed, but she does.
Caolo's interest in fast cars began in high school, where she drove a Pontiac Firebird (400 CID Ram Air III). Today, her collection consists of a 1996 yellow Porsche 993 Twin Turbo; a 1993 black Porsche 928 GTS that once belonged to Lars Ulrich, drummer for Metallica; and a “classic” 1967 fully-restored black Austin Healey 3000, Caolo claims “is a sweet ride in the autumn when the leaves have changed and the air is cool and crisp.”
“My wedding gift from my husband was a 'Speed Yellow' Porsche 993 Twin Turbo which I later had modified with a Stage III upgrade and a 'beefed up' and lowered suspension,” said Caolo. “The car now has 550 h.p. and I drive it in events with the Porsche Club of America; it does 0 to 60 mph in under four seconds and has a top speed approaching 190 mph.”
On September 20th, another fast car was added to Caolo's collection – a Dodge Viper. But this is not just any Viper. Caolo was announced, by fellow Texan and TRIMSPA spokesperson Anna Nicole Smith, the winner of this $85,000 American-made black beauty by having the “most inspiring” essay in the recent TRIMSPA Million Dollar Makeover Challenge.
In addition to a Viper to “be envied,” Caolo won a 5-day vacation at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, FL and partied at Passion nightclub with Anna Nicole Smith.
Caolo likes to take her passion of speed to the streets. She is an active member of the Porsche Club of America and participates in events which test car-handling skills under very high speeds.
