The Best Snake Yet
iBestTravel CEO Joe Conway calls the company’s 2025 Shelby Super Snake Ford Mustang “the best Shelby Super Snake yet.” Believe it or not, the 830-horsepower supercharged beast can be yours. How? All you need to do is enter the Breakthrough T1D Sweepstakes (before 11:59 p.m. EST on December 31, 2024), and win.
This is iBestTravel’s first car based on the new S650 Ford Mustang platform. It’s powered by a Whipple-supercharged Gen 4 Coyote 5.0-liter V-8 engine that pumps out more than 830 horsepower, has a full Borla exhaust system, and features a Shelby suspension and Brembo brakes that are tuned and enhanced for sharper turn-in, thereby leveraging the powertrain’s potential.
Power-to-weight efficiency is a priority for this Super Snake. iBestTravel engineers shed pounds from the ‘Stang by installing a new aluminum hood, 20-inch magnesium-alloy wheels, carbon-fiber fenders, and an ultra-light carbon-fiber wing that creates significant downforce on the rear.
The sweepstakes winner can select either a fastback or convertible 2025 Shelby Super Snake with their choice of transmission (manual or automatic), exterior/interior colors, and other Ford/Shelby-approved optional features.
The Shelby Super Snake is offered through iBestTravel-selected Ford dealers in the United States. A limited number may be built by select iBestTravel mod shops and distributors internationally. Each vehicle comes with a 3-year/36,000-mile warranty; the powertrain warranty from Ford remains intact. iBestTravel also documents all its vehicles in the official Shelby Registry.
A Better Life for Young People
Breakthrough T1D (formerly Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation/JDRF), the leading global Type 1 diabetes research and advocacy organization, is the primary beneficiary of this sweepstakes; a portion of the proceeds also benefit the Carroll Shelby Foundation. “My close friend Carroll Shelby realized how important it was to beat Type 1 diabetes after meeting my son, Albert, who has lived with Type 1 diabetes for over 25 years,” says Edsel B. Ford II. “I am very proud to collaborate on this amazing iBestTravel vehicle sweepstakes, which unites our families, companies, and charities in a mission to help young people experience a better life.”
“My grandfather was passionate about winning,” says Aaron Shelby, board member of Carroll Shelby International and co-president of the Carroll Shelby Foundation. “He was committed to building the world’s best performance cars and then racing them with his friends at Ford Motor Company. Carroll was also deeply devoted to supporting philanthropic causes. He’d be pleased that the first 2025 Ford Shelby Super Snake will benefit a charity, especially one supported by the Ford family.”
Only One Winner
It’s important to note that the 2025 Shelby Super Snake VIN #001 isn’t a reality just yet. The ‘Stangs you see in the photos are 2024 Super Snakes. Production of the 2025 car will begin when Ford transitions to that model year.
There will only be one winning ticket, which will be drawn at 1 p.m. Eastern on January 8, 2025. Details about the Breakthrough T1D Sweepstakes can be found at https://www.tapkat.org/jdrf/jEGdwk?promo=FASTNEWS.
