I ran across this today. They are affiliated with Shelby to sell Goodyear racing tires. I didnt know Shelby was int eh tire business as well. I called them and found out Goodyear makes a DOT drag radial that will fit Cobras.

This is not a "Shelby Shop." They sell Goodyear tires. Mostly at race tracks. We have seen their truck at old track events. I was on a cruise last week with some other SPF cars and one of them had DOT legal Goodyear Billboards on. Nice tires, really sticky, threw up rocks a lot but held great in the rain.

When Shel stopped racing he became the distributor for Goodyear Racing Tires. He figured Cobras where a footnote in racing history so time to do something else. Had a Chili Mix business for a while.

I like to go around corners quickly and not slide too much

Fitz,
I included the phone number in the first post. On another note, sliding around corners correctly has to do more with the driver than the tires, doesn't it?

In my case the car is all on automatic. That is why the wife is screaming so loudly! "Look no hands"

Usually I drive a few miles per hour below the speed limit.. Usually the last person behind Mr Mike. Car is always on Auto Pilot and follows the white line.
