Default New cobra jet mustang

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Got my monthly email from ford racing and seen this

2008 Mustang FR500CJ – Cobra Jet
Eager to rekindle the excitement of the original Cobra Jet, the FR500CJ Mustang is ready to take its rightful place and make history. Based on preliminary testing, this racer will prove to be a factory barn-burner at the drag strip. For a sneak peek of what is to come from Ford Racing

looks like they have been testing at milan dragway too

sounds great and looks good might have to have one!!!!!!

here a youtube clip

"The FR500CJ will be a factory-built race car with a 400 horsepower 5.4L DOHC supercharged engine with a 6-speed manual transmission that is standard, an optional automatic will also be available. The car itself will be lightweight at 3,300 lbs and will be NHRA legal to 10.00 second ET’s along with the interior being NHRA Stock Eliminator legal interior. It will come with a unique trim and appearance package, drag race wheel/tire combination and a Cobra Jet graphics package. Ford says there will be an initial 50 unit production run with the MSRP being $69,900."
