"Live" from the 2013 Cobra Jet Owners School and Test-n-Tune
 
I will attempt to keep the classracer.com members informed on whats going on at the 2013 Cobra Jet Owners School and Test-n-Tune. Ford Racing invited all the 2013 Cobra Jet owners who took delivery of their cars a few weeks ago out to Milan Dragway to a new owners school lead by Roy Hill.

That is MIke Skinner's black 2013 with the parachute installed. He and his son Kevin are new to class racing, so take it easy on them! haha
