Planet Ford in Spring loves to help a good cause. Fortunately, Ford does too! Ford Ford teamed up with Protean and Penske Vehicle Services to create a custom 2020 Mustang Shelby® GT500®. This one of a kind ride was donated by Ford to be raffled to benefit JDRF and its battle against Type 1 diabetes.
The 2020 JDRF Mustang Shelby GT500 comes in a one-of-one Venom metallic clearcoat – a stealthy charcoal color – with black painted over-the-top racing stripes. It has the Carbon Fiber Track Package, including exposed carbon fiber wheels, Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires, rear seat-delete, Recaro® leather-trimmed seats and Mustang GT4 track wing.
“Building on the excitement around GT500 is a terrific way to help JDRF fund research and help find a cure for Type 1 diabetes,” said Dave Pericak, Ford director of enterprise product line management. “Not only does this raffle provide an opportunity to win the most powerful production Ford ever, it also speaks to how Ford strives to make people’s lives better.”
For nearly a decade, Ford has been donating vehicles to JDRF for its raffle fund-raiser.
Tickets can be purchased online at https://p2p.onecause.com/jdrfgt500 until Nov. 10. Tickets cost $10 each. The drawing will be held Nov. 14 at the Ford Conference and Event Center, 1151 Village Road, Dearborn, Mich. The winner does not need to be present at the raffle drawing to win.
The first-place raffle winner will receive the Shelby GT500 and the second-place winner will receive an all-inclusive VIP race experience for two to the 2020 Daytona 500.
