Lifting the throttle in a turn can bite you. Are your tires pretty decent?

Tires are key.
These hard 17" type set ups are not typically made for lightweight 90" wheelbase cars....
15" - Avons, Dunlop or Billboards hold the road.

I always say, "tires are key to traction" !

I agree, Avon's on 15" wheels is best. Too bad their 2k.
I had a group buy on them, but only 7.5%, but with the economy now, I don't know if I can get anything.

With my rebuild of my Cobra, I only have 2k left in the piggy bank, so I can't afford tires, and I need to replace them after sitting for 15 years.
