I saw an article yesterday with the headline: " 2016 Cobra Jet runs low 8's "

However, the article failed to state exactly what time it ran.

I cannot help but think that the Ford engineers are thinking about that first magical 7.99 pass in Stock Eliminator.

I thought they ran a C4, what tranny is that? What trans do the stick cars get?

Saw that blue one at SEMA, didn't get to see underneath but it looks like now the Fords will get to have rear suspension to match the bogus Dodge and Chevy.

The 2016 comes with a C400 = Ford bolt pattern bellhousing on a TH400 size trans case.
