I don't think there exists the "perfect all-everything tire" for a Cobra that we all wish was out there.
No easy answer to this conundrum!

There are plenty of Cobra and GT40 owners using their Avons for racing.
And I don't know many folks running their Cobra's, GT40's or what have you, in the wet/rain. So maybe that zero is because not many, if any, have any experience on wet pavement.
All I know is that I'm NOT ever going to be an owner of Billboards for any reason except possibly to roll on and off a trailer to shows.
