Things in the rules that work in your favor.

• Every free mail-in is worth 18 entries, the same as a $25 donation (18 entries for $25), and the rules set no limit on how many mailers one person may send beyond the overall entry cap.

  Show the rules' wordingHide the wording· How to Enter, 3

  “Each eligible mailer will receive eighteen (18) Entries.”

• The sponsor may run promotional offers that give extra entries (the platform page shows "+0 Promo" on every donation tier on 2026-10-01).

  Show the rules' wordingHide the wording· How to Enter, Additional Donation Entry Terms

  “From time to time, Sponsor may make promotional offers where Entrants can obtain additional Entries.”

• Open to anyone 18 or older worldwide (outside the exclusions), so the entrant pool is not limited to the US and Canada.

  Show the rules' wordingHide the wording· Eligibility

  “The Sweepstakes is open to anyone 18 years or older or the age of majority in Entrant’s local jurisdiction, if older.”

• A person may hold at most 100,000 entries across all methods. At 18 entries per mailer that is about 5,556 mailers; the cap matches a $50,000 donor at the best tier (4,000 entries per $2,000).

• The headline prize needs $1,000,000 in total donations. Below that, the winner gets only 25% of the gross donations. The campaign page showed $454,700 donated when read on 2026-10-01, under the $1,000,000 minimum. Earlier Shelby sweepstakes rules read in this audit (2026-02 to 2026-08) carried no such minimum.

  Show the rules' wordingHide the wording· Prize

  “Subject to a minimum of $1,000,000 in total donation proceeds received during the Sweepstakes Entry Period, the Prize is either a 2006 Ford GT Heritage Edition or $750,000 cash! (approximate value of $1,000,000) or $750,000 in cash (“Prize”). In the event less than $1,000,000 in total donation proceeds are received during the Sweepstakes Entry Period, the Sponsor will award 25% of the total donation proceeds to the qualified selected winner.”

• The rules treat the prize as non-transferable and not redeemable for cash, yet also mention a cash option for the grand prize.

  Show the rules' wordingHide the wording· Prize

  “Prize is nontransferable and may not be substituted or redeemed for cash by Prize winner.”

• Winner response windows disagree: 30 days to respond to the notification, but a 48-hour deadline for the initial verification.

  “Failure by potential Prize winner to respond to the initial verification, or failure by Canadian Entrant(s) to correctly answer the skill question, within 48 hours of notification may result in disqualification”

• The sponsor's page and the TapKat page say the winner who takes the car also gets $50,000 for expenses, or $750,000 cash instead. The rules say only "a 2006 Ford GT Heritage Edition or $750,000 cash" with an approximate value of $1,000,000 and mention no $50,000. The rules govern.
