Irene Shannon

Irene Skylar Shannon is the daughter to President Joseph Shannon and First Lady Maria Shannon. Irene is of Australian decent, as her mother was born in Sydney, Australia. Irene spent 12 years of her life in Australia with her mother, when her father was deployed aboard to various bases with the Marine Corps all over the world.

Irene was born in the city of Concordia, a largely Australian ethnic city in Eastern Tarakia, just North of Seacrest. Irene has taken a liking to production car racing on enclosed racing tracks around Tarakia, and has even raced herself. "My favorite car? well it depends on the era you mean? personally I have a real soft spot for classic muscle cars and their big V8's, my father owned a 1970 Plymouth Road Runner, that was in turn his Grandfathers. My grandfather gave me his 1969 Dodge Charger R/T as a graduation present, ohh I remember the looks I got in that, young 19 year old hottie driving an orange '69 Dodge Charger. Later on, after my grandfather had passed away, in his will it stated that I would get his 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T, in which I did, very beautiful car and the plum crazy paint job? Now that turns heads. But I do really like the '08 Holden HSV W427 and as you can see, it's the car I tend to race and yes it is right hand drive, very rare here. Since we're on the topic of Holden, I also have a '68 Holden HK Monaro GTS with a 5.7L 350 V8, barely drive it though, because the parts are so hard to find."
