Replace tires before you take it out for it's first drive.

Then, as a 1st time Cobra owner, repeat the following:
"As soon as I turn the key and start the motor, this car will try to kill me"
Unlike any other car you have ever owned, and regardless of your driving or racing experience, you need to take the learning curve slowly......

Hope you find this helpfu, enjoy the ride.
