Thanks to all for your kind words of encouragement and in sharing my joy after all this time. Over the next three weeks I will be driving the car gently and seeing what it can do. BTW the tires are just standard Mickey T's with a flame tread do not think they are the sticky type.
Cheers, John, AKA, tin-man

MTs should be a lot better than the Goodyear Eagle II bricks.
By the way, what happened to the forum? All of a sudden gratuitous likes are appearing (check "tires" above). Something called "viglink" adds a link to ebay.

Enjoy your Cobra within your limits John and as you and the car become more accustomed to one another, that enjoyment will just continue to grow.

Hey Tinny.
Congrats.
I echo all the comments about getting to know your car. These things will bite you in the A$$ quicker than you can blink. Hopefully I'll see you this weekend. Weather permitting.

When you log on you should see a "Be A CC Contributor" in blue and green in the upper right corner. Hit the link and contribute away.
I gave up on earning trophies. Back in the day before 'participation trophies', I was given the 'Mr. Optometry Award' for having a good eye in little league. Let's just say that since that time, I buy my own trophies.
BTW, post details about your drives. We all have something invested in this.
