Mickmate - Re: the BF Goodriches - useless tires for drag racing, but about the only tire I've found hard and tough enough to take the abuse on some of the rough, potholed roads down here. Having said that, I genuinely wonder if a better set of tires would have made a difference in my ability to keep control in that same situation - Heaven knows I tried.

I do not know if my tyres are easy to buy on your side of Atlantic ocean but when I equipped my Cobra with "Michelin Sport Pilot", I discovered a big difference in behavior of my Cobra (a great improvement) on wet or contaminated surface. My Cobra became almost as efficient as a "normal car" to keep contact with the road in adverse conditions. They are costly but long lasting, with an excellent pattern. (but these are not the ones I use for racing: on dragstrip, I use Hoosier).
In France, your body injuries would cost you nothing (we have a 100% national general insurance health coverage ) so, in my country, it costs more to get a car repaired than an human body repaired
Get well to be able to dance on the New year celebrations!!!
