Were is the 2017 or 2018 cobra jet. I remember years back you could walk the pits and see cobra jet banners in every ford pit. I was in Charlotte this year and did not see one ford cobra jet banner. It looks like there were about 4 cobra jets racing the showdown. I would think with all the cobra jets that were made you would have seen more. Why can't they use the 5.4 with a 4.0 blower, didn't ford make them for a few years. Man this is crazy, lost of good cars and they can't race them.

Where have all the cobra jets gone ?

Brian Wolfe was promoted out of Ford Racing at the end of 2009. Jesse Kershaw was the drag racing manager but left last year I believe. Mike had been the circle track manager but left Ford and then came back to be drag racing manager when Jesse left. I would have found someone who races a Ford myself to manage drag racing. I wish that Jesse would return but there are probably politics that I do not know about that might prevent that.
