Member needs help winning $2500 in mods!
Fellow Mustang Source Members
This is a call for help...
My 2007 GT500 convertible has made it to round 2 of the Ultimate Mustang Challange (stangplanet.com) and the second round of voting has begun.
There is a $2500 in mod prize money at stake and I am currently behind in the voting. I hope with this post that I can rally some local support. Can anyone help?
Also if you could mention this to others it would be greatly appreciated!
Please help me spread the word!

Look at the bottom of the page! My car is the GT500 CONVERTIBLE!
I sincerely appreciate any help I can get!

MrFarmdog's 2007 Shelby GT500
Here is a link to my You Tube video!
Welcome and I hope you all like my 2007 Shelby GT500. When I first bought my car in March my goal was to have a 10 second street cruiser, and for me a convertible was the only choice! I loved the look of the LeMans stripes on the coupes but they did not come on convertibles so I bought them and installed them myself. Now I feel it actually looks like a Shelby instead of just another Mustang convertible.
I have really enjoyed my car. In the past 6 months I have put over 8,500 miles on it, most of which have been Shelby related trips or vacations. It has been a blast to drive and is a real head turner, especially when I rip loose with the 703 RWHP (Thanks Kenny Bell!). The car has seen it's fair share of time at the track as well and I am very close to reaching my goal of having a 10 second cruiser!
Thanks again for reading and if you have any questions feel free to ask!
Performance Mods
Tires - Nitto Drag Radials (Better traction)
Drive Shaft - Powerhouse 4 inch aluminum DS (Handle up to 1000 HP)
Rear Suspension – (eliminate wheel hop and help with launching)
Line Lock - Granatelli Tire Fryer Line Lock (heat tires up at the track without burning up clutch)
Shifter - Steeda Tri-Ax Shifter (better shifting performance - less missed shifts)
Exhaust - FRPP GT5 Axle Back Race Mufflers (Makes the car sound like it should with 700+ RWHP)
Rear Differential

Yes it is. When I ordered my car last year I signed up on several boards, this one included. I was going through my bookmarks today and found it.
I noticed you are from St Louis. There is a Shelby event happing up there is a few weeks. Lots of owners from around St Louis will be attending. Do you know any?

Well the heat is on and my lead has dwindled down to 3 votes. 
I sincerely appreciate the help I have received. Is there anyone else that can help? I would hate to come all this way to fall back behind after such an outstanding rally.
