Ford Mustang Cobra Jet Dragster Revealed at SEMA
Ford's SEMA show booth hosted the premiere of the Mustang FR500CJ, also known simply as the Cobra Jet. To put it simple, the Mustang FR500CJ is an affordable factory-built race car for the drag strip that can compete right off of the truck and run in the 10-second range. The Mustang-based dragster that joins its road racing siblings aka the Mustang FR500S, the Mustang FR500C and the Mustang FR500GT, is available for order from any Ford dealer as a Ford Racing part.
