Re: Cobra Jet Showdown 2012
This weekend Maple Grove had a small Cobra Jet Shootout/exhibition at their Fun Ford Weekend event. Drivers included Roy Hill, Pro Mod racer Robert Patrick, Lizzy Musi (daughter of Pat), and Bob Romanelli, with Lizzy taking the win over Roy. Also original Cobra Jet driver and drag racing legend Hubert Platt took the wheel for a licence pass! Roy and Robert are moving on to Milan then to Indy, here are a few photos.....

Re: Cobra Jet Showdown 2012
The response to the Showdown has been great. It looks like we will have a mix of beginners and some of the fastest cars out there. Should be fun!
If you can't make it out to see the race in person we will definitely have pics up on our Facebook page and I will work with Ken to make sure we get some great shots on here as well. Thank you to all the racers who support the Cobra Jet program. -Jesse

Re: Cobra Jet Showdown 2012
I'm driving 500+ miles Friday morning to Milan just to see the shootout. I was there last year also. Then headed 600+ miles Wednesday to Indy to hopefully see most of the same cars beat up on the COPOs & Drag Packs......
 Can't wait!!!

Re: Cobra Jet Showdown 2012
Booked hotel last week, heading up Thursday after work for Milan.
(I'm lucky for Indy, 1 hour drive north for me to make it my Home track.)

Re: Cobra Jet Showdown 2012
Thanks for the shout out from down south! Will try to keep things updated if possible. Will be pretty busy testing different combos, good place to do so. Will definitely try to fly the colors proud.
Thanks! Brett Candies 4192 Stock/SS |
