It is laughable. However, it was I, and few Cobra drivers sporting the Avons , who were doing the laughing. The 17" guys who tried to keep up with us were picking the hay bales out of their teeth, and not laughing.

I don't need to make any converts for me to know what I have already experienced.

Sorry guys, I just have to believe my lying eyes, and not the bench racers this time. We'll just have to agree to disagree.

PS. Here's the first Cobra I rode in, September 1965. I was 14. I'm pretty sure it didn't have Avon tires....
