Stiff Sidewall Slicks Work

[cobra93]

Did this twice before we figured out how to tame the Cobra down with the new stiff walled M/T tires. Here is the link to the video of the second pass: http://www.the-arnolds.net/Cobra/gir-26sep2007-2.wmv

Need to touch up the bottom of the rear valance - again.

Enjoy.

This was the first time with the stiff sidewall tires. Always ran the regular 26x10's and was never able to get them to last more than 8-12 passes before the 60-fts went away. It is my belief that the stiff wall hits the suspension much harder, allowing it to do it's job. 60-fts were in the mid to high 1.3x range with regular tires. The one good hit we got on the car with the stiff walled tires was a 1.31, so there should be more there.
