Yes I did. Was #1 Qal set record 9.220 @ 144.27, record back in the Ford camp for now.
Should have been a teen but couldn't get that good straight hooked up pass in. Broke a tranny on back up run had to use spare that wasn't clutchless and had wrong gearing for this combo.

Just to clear things up I have no problem with the New Cobra Jets, I think they are pretty cool. Would like to put my FE in one.

Excuse my lack of Ford knowledge, but what does FE stand for?

Congratulations to all the racers and crew on their performance. It's not easy and all their hard work is paying off.

Thanks Ford Racing for paying attention.

Lets keep putting the Brand X cars on the trailer as they take a shot at the belt.

ADRL Finals at Ennis this weekend coming up. Weather looks quite nice. Super Cobra Jets should be running well.

Jesse, do you know who is going to that race? Good luck to all the racers.

There are a couple Cobra Jets for sale right now on a couple sites and one in particular at a very good price. For those that would like to get their hands on one of these factory Hot Rods.
