Evan Smith 2014 Cobra Jet Testing

I was sent this photo of Evan Smith driving the 2014 Cobra Jet. No numbers on how fast, but it was a 5.0 Super Charged CJ. Don't know if it was the stock or ss combo. The CJ received no damage when it landed and I was told it then went on to make many clean runs.

I guess Evan is back from retirement, nice to see Class Racer getting the scoop.

Think they are all being built one-flavor except color and if you want the CJ graphics as well: 5.0L w/2.9L Whipple and all T400's in Reid SFI cases. Heard the flat-black is a $6K option...should look awesome, too!

Why are they not building clutch cars anymore?

Not long after testing started today, a blimp appeared directly over the track hovering for some time. By tracing the tail number it was determined that 3 individuals had charthered the ship - although unnamed, their home base locations were noted - Auburn Hills, Michigan, Warren, Michigan and Southern Louisana.

This can coozie also appeared to fall from the sky as the blimp passed over.

This reckless flight appears to be a direct result of the air-traffic controller furloughs. I'm notifying the FAA.

I don't think they would approve of these so called Swamp Tourees and alcohol consumption at 1000 feet.

The Ford guys are working hard to ensure the 2014 CJ owners get a good ride.
