By design, the front of the car will have less traction than the rear. That's just a given with these cars. Simply looking at the width of front vs. rear tires will give you a big clue.

My front tires are not "old", just not as new as the rears.

The difference in this car is astounding. I've put a lot of miles on more than one Cobra. A lot of track miles, too; I won 5 regional championships in a Cobra. I have a pretty god idea on how they should handle.

I have a couple of projects to finish, then I can turn my attention to the Cobra again.
