Tasca Ford Backs 55th Anniversary Cobra Jet Reunion At NMRA Norwalk
 
In 2018, NMRA’s sister series, NMCA, celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Cobra Jet, and ever since then Cobra Jet owners and fans have clamored for another gathering of Ford’s storied, purpose-built machines. That time has come as Tasca Ford and TascaParts.com again support the 55th Anniversary Cobra Jet Reunion during NMRA’s Ford Homecoming event at Summit Motorsports Park from June 8-11. 
 
“The first Cobra Jet reunion was simply epic, and since that time owners and fans have asked me when we could do another one,” Steve Wolcott, President and CEO of NMRA, said. “With the 55th Anniversary of the Cobra Jet coinciding with NMRA’s silver anniversary, what could be a better time? We’re thrilled to have TascaParts.com again supporting this event, and we can’t wait to see all the classic and modern Cobra Jets in Norwalk.”
 
Cobra Jet owners can participate in a variety of ways, including a dedicated car show or entries that include the car show and drag racing. Participants will enjoy a Saturday lunch provided by Tasca Ford under a dedicated Cobra Jet Reunion tent in the car show, and fans can enjoy a variety of Cobra Jet vehicles from a legendary chapter in Ford’s performance history.
 
“You’ll get to meet great racers and see a lot of fast Mustangs at this reunion,” Carl Tasca Sr., of Tasca Ford, said. “I was there from the beginning with my father and the Ford people when the Cobra Jet was created. It was exciting then and still is today. When you build something great it lasts.”
