So consider this.....

You should begin a contest. Every member of the forums donates $5. that, by either a random drawing or other process, would not collect the total pot, but that the site would then use the funds to buy the winner a new 05 mustang GT.

Obviously, you would probably not get $5 dollars from EVERY member, because it takes all of us money to keep our mustangs on the road and all the mods paid for, but if you could get something from a majority of the members, that could go a long way toward paying for the car. Ive got some ideas of how to choose the winner, so if you are interested, let me know.

Brian

well with 5807 members, that'd be 29,035 just enough to cover tax and title fee's on a GT. I like the idea, but i dont know how feasible that is.

^good point

i wouldnt mind giving up $5.

and it doesnt have to be loaded with lots options either. the excess money from buying the car IMO, should be givin to the staff, cuz they keep the site running and guys like me occupied inbetween hw assignments

More like $100 per ticket, with hopefully over 350 members buying a ticket.

I'll be in for a $100 ticket. 350-1, not bad odds considering..... at that price for a ticket, it really has to be a well run comp though.
