Ford Racing Cobra Jet Drag Race Showdown was Presented By Diversified Products
One of the unique things about this event is The Cobra Jet Showdown. The Cobra Jet program is huge, as Ford Racing’s engineers have spent countless hours testing, modifying, and re-testing the racing program to make sure that it’s 100% reliable for its customers. The decision to hold a Cobra Jet race each year was an easy one, and in 2012 featured three classes designed for the new Cobra Jet. Winners included: Ray Skillman in the 4.0 class, Chris Holbrook in the 2.3 class. Both Skillman and Holbrook then faced off in the CIC showdown, which was won by Skillman.
