Famed vehicle builder and race team owner Jack Roush who provided the power for the truck joined the M/T team at the show for a press conference to introduce the New Roush Racing .07 Drag Pack, an exciting new Mustang package that will be available next year. The 2007 Mustang package, shown here in the M/T booth, will be loaded with Roush performance products and upgrades. The vehicle will come with Cooper Zeon 2XS tires for street driving and the owner will receive a pair of Mickey Thompson ET Drag Slicks for drag racing. The vehicle is designed to be driven off the dealer showroom and out to the drag strip where owners can expect to run the quarter mile in 12 seconds with no additional modifications. In testing, the Roush team was able to achieve several runs in the 11.9 second and 113 mph range! Several drag racing sanctioning bodies are considering developing special race classes just for owners of these street legal factory drag cars, the likes of which have not been seen since the early 70.s.

After all that is what the Sema show is all about, new products, new companies, and new opportunities.
*Note:
The federal government imposes an excise tax with a graduated tax rate structure on heavy
tires. The early history of this tax shows that it mirrored war periods and was used both
to conserve rubber supplies and as a funding source. Today, tire taxes are part of the
monies used to fund the Highway Trust Fund. We have already included this tax into ALL
of our tire prices, what you see is what you pay. We NEVER have hidden charges
