RE: Win Carroll Shelby's GT500 - proceeds benefit the Carroll Shelby Children's Fund
I saw this car at the Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale.
I didn't purchase a ticket because they didn't say how many tickets will be sold. I like to know the odds beforehand. A ticket might make a nice present though... hint hint!
