Hi guys,
I'm extremely glad to present you the Factory Five Racing Cobra FFR Number
3865 that my friend just received today!
It belang to a member of this forum, he's name is G. Roberts from Goodyear AZ.
Here's a video and a few pics!
merci beaucoup Thierry!
je viens de jeter un coup d'oeil sur les photos de ta Cobra, elle est magnifique!
Quelle marque de pneus nous conseilles-tu de monter afin d'avoir un meilleur contrôle et un meilleur grip?

Thank you for the compliment on my car....
He was asking what type of tire we recommend for better grip/ hook up.

I see you are running 15 inch wheels so I will not be able to chime in...
I have 17 inch wheels and run kumho ecsta xs tires and I'm very satisfied.
Thierry

I am so glad that FFR3865 has gone to a good home. It was a big decision to sell her, and now we really (read that REALLY) miss her.
Very limited with choice of tires since they are only 15". I liked the way she looked with these wheels and tires so I kept them. I did have BF Goodrich on her before and opted for the present Firehawk's, they do not grip as well as the BF goodrich ones did.
Have fun.....Posi

Neat video: I think I saw the front end of a very nice car as you were backing out of your garage as well as another one that was inside but it was dark. My suggestion for your tire set up is to purchase some 17 inch wheels as the tire selection is much better. If you are after grip you can go with a road race tire like the Hoozier R but they are not good in the rain. I have a friend with a Coupe that runs track day events as well as some Auto-x and he likes the Michelin Pilots very well. He has 335 tires on the rear of his car with 275 on the front and his car handels very well.

Mulder: Lots of car guys hang out here, can you post a few more pics of your collection so we can see them? We like anything with 4 wheels on it.
Thanks for your reply:
