Celebrating your 50th anniversary usually involves something a bit genteel. Maybe a small party. An afternoon with friends. Tea. Not so for Ford, who plans on releasing the fastest Mustang drag racer ever. It is the Ford Mustang Cobra Jet. And Ford reckons on a quarter-mile time of somewhere in the mid-8-second range", and a 150mph top speed. Maybe you might need that tea after all. It"s not a road car, mind, so you can"t say oh it"ll smash the Dodge Demon in a straight line". The Demon is a road car that can be adapted for the drag strip. (And just FYI, the Demon will do the quarter mile in 9.65secs. Still insanely quick.)

wonder what the price tag will be?

But ( Celebrating your 50th anniversary) that was a few agao ago now so bit behind on there plans
 
Is it going to make 8 seconds on standard width street legal tyres? I think that will be one heck of an achievement.
A friends capri gets around 7.8seconds, the tyres about 2ft wide and think its around 180mph trap speed.
 
Bet your capri mate not on forun ????
