Information on American Muscle's huge Mustang show

I heard that MF had a great showing and I appreciate all of the MF'ers who went out and repped the forum.

Press release from American Muscle about their 2010 Charity Car Show:

The AmericanMuscle car show this year was amazing! There were thousands of people in attendance, over 500 Mustangs, and thousands raised for charity. I hope that everyone agrees that it was a fun and successful day. We couldn’t have done any of this without our loyal customers, so let’s take a look at the final figures:

Total # of Mustangs: 524
Total # of People: Over 1700
Final Charity Amount Raised: $14,825
% of People Who Had a Great Time: 100%!

Not only were all of the donations and attendance records broken, we had some of the hottest, loudest and baddest Mustangs in the country show up. If you like watching cars make big power on the dyno, this was the spot to be. Add in an AmericanMuscle girl getting completely soaked in water, and it was a win for everybody! This exciting new contest emerged this year at our 2010 Car Show, and was dubbed the Dyno Dunk Tank competition.
How Does It Work?
1. Tell Us the Modifications on your Mustang
2. We Guess a Target Horsepower Number
3. Beat the Number, Dunk the AM Girls!
Our AM Girls, Stephanie and Melissa, were notably dropped in the water by a 3.4L Whipple Supercharged Cobra and Supercharged S197 V6 Mustang! With nearly 30 Mustangs strapped down to the dyno before the day was over, we estimated nearly 12,000-15,000 horsepower recorded throughout the day.
When Mustangs started pouring into the Kimberton Fairgrounds last weekend, I realized this was not going to be a typical car show! Within a few short hours, we counted over 500 of the sickest Mustangs from all over the country! Some will say it was a mixture of a great cause, hot girls and free food! Others will say it was the perfect weather (I’m not buying it!). Either way, this car show was kicking off the right way…
With such a great turnout, it was very hard to decide our trophy winners. Congrats goes out to some beautiful rides:

It seems like everyone’s favorites, here around the office, included the Iacocca Mustang, 429 Cobra, Super Snakes and the new 5.0’s! But it’s also about how your car sounds…
Does your car wake up the whole neighborhood? Can we hear your Mustang rumbling from a mile away? If this sounds like you, I think it’s time you checked out the AmericanMuscle Muffler Rapping Competition from this past weekend’s 2010 Car Show.
The muffler rapping competition is the loudest Stangs of the show, head-to-head in front of a rowdy crowd of enthusiasts! This crowd will love it or hate it, and they chose Brad Little from CT and his ‘04 GT. Congratulations Brad!
If you had a specific Mustang part-related question, I had you covered this past weekend! Nearly 20 of the Mustang aftermarket’s top manufacturers came to help out and answer any questions about the products they offer. With so much knowledge on-site, people were itching to ask about the next big thing on their mods list.
Some of the vendors that made it out to the show included:

BBK Performance
Covercraft
Diablosport
H&R Suspension
Magnaflow
SLP Performance
Nitto Tires
SCT Flash
Pypes Exhaust
Sumitumo
Lloyd Mats
Airaid
Drake Automotive
Prestolite
Mishimoto
Pertronix
California Pony Cars

If that wasn’t enough, we set up our own “Ask the Experts” booth to help fill the gap for the vendors who couldn’t make it. Special guests included the Bama Custom Tuning team and many talented members of our customer service staff.
Now, there’s nothing like getting a close view of 500+ of the top Mustangs from around the country. Nothing, that is, except a close view of the AmericanMuscle girls! Not only are these girls smokin’ hot, but they collected thousands of dollars in raffle tickets sales for charity. If you missed them walking around the show (get that checked out!), we’ve got some video footage for you!
