Video: 2010 Mustang Cobra Jet test and tune at the dragstrip


2010 Cobra Jet


We already knew that Ford would be continuing the Cobra Jet, a drag ready ride from the factory, for the 2010 model year. And now the new CJ has already been out for a little testing recently at Milan Dragway in Michigan.

There are some differences, besides the styling, between the '09 and '10 models. Under the hood is a massive 3.4 liter Whipple supercharger that forces air into the 5.4L V8, more so than the previous model's FRPP blower. The interior gets a Liberty clutchless V-Gate style shifter and various gauges, buttons and toggles that give it a nice racey look.

Full details on the car will be available when it makes it's debut at SEMA in November. Until then, check out the Cobra Jet making a 1/4 mile pass in the video.
