In 1968 Ford took the NHRA Winternationals by storm with the Cobra Jet Mustang. Only 50 units were built and released to Ford Dealers and Ford racers, and in its first appearance the Cobra Jet won.
Forty years after this historic event, Ford Racing announced that they were exploring the development of a new NHRA-legal race car – the 2008 Cobra Jet Mustang. Some details of this exciting program had already begun to surface so they decided to make the announcement themselves.
In 2008 the Ford Racing Cobra Jet Mustang (FR500CJ) was born. It was a factory-built race car, ready for the drag strip with only minor additional prep required of the racer.

The Cobra Jet Mustang (M-FR500-CJ) joins Ford Racing's two successful road racing Mustangs, the M-FR500-C and M-FR500-S, as turn-key race cars available only from Ford Dealers. A limited number of units are under consideration for 2008; the specific number remains TBD.
