Found this on ebay. I can't figure out if this is totally Brilliant, or completely Stupid.
Drive a 2007 Shelby GT500 For $50
Personnally I'd rather drive one of his Z06's, or 911's, and would pay $50 to drive one of them, but I don't think I would pay that much to run a GT500 in a 1/4 mile just one time .

thats kind of interesting, I would actually consider it if I had the extra cash. It is a good way to raise a few bucks, but I would never do it.

Gay. It's only about an hour away from me though. If they were raising money for something useful, I might consider it.
Traction control being on though??? What a crock.

how are they gonna keep the winner from shifting at 6500?
And what the hell is wrong with going to redline, it has a rev limiter does it not? Well if it works than you cant really do too much damage say if you miss a shift...

They say they charge extra for burnouts and new tires, therefore, it's 50 bucks if you grandma it down the track. If you actually launch they'll stick you with a portion of a new set of tires.
