right! now your talking!
kids were sledding at the high school, nice big open parking lot.
i was at a local winter-indoor-car-show-of-sorts. wife had hot coco so i met with them on the way back and ripped off a few snow-donuts. let me tell ya - it sure doesn't take much throttle to spin it in the snow :)

That particular cobra has over 200,000 miles on it and that top never comes off. Lots of cobras without tops and it was in the 40's in the am.

We keep our top most of the time also.I work outside for a living and taking a break from the sun in our car feels good.Once took my car to a back parking lot and had some fun testing the latteral G force.Made a lot of smoke funny thing was is as I was driving away on one side of the mall noticed a LEO flying in on the opposite end.Can't imagine who would have turned me in and I made it home ticket free.At that time decided it was time to try different rubber the BFG's are only good for longevity.With the big block it is way too easy to break them loose especially pushing the latteral G thing.

I currently have the Avons and before them had the billboards. The Avons are great, and I mean great tires, but I'm going back to the billboards.
The reason for this is the billboards are 50 pounds lighter for the set. That extra 50 pounds for the Avons is a lot of unsprung weight that affects the handling. And yes, I can tell the difference in a corner when you hit a bump.
