Avons for the track, 100% recommend them.

Hey Bill, you are correct for 80% of Cobra owners, but I and the other 20%, with my 750 (+/-) HP/TQ, I'll need traction. Some drag, road course and heavy street use the Cooper Cobra tires wouldn't be worth any price. A lot of us don't drive our open cockpit cars, don't drive the car under 50 degrees.

If I do, I'll warm them up before going on a thrill ride.
