Doubtful. What school do you go to? I work full time, but it was at UD a few times last year and maybe once this year.

During the rain it's not too likely to see my car either. What neighborhood? My car stays off the street.

I don't know that I've seen many, if any, other black '03 Cobras in the area.

If you see me though, and you'll know it's me by the vanity tag, stop by and say hey.

LOL Not at all. My rear tires are Mickey Thompson ET Street Radials or ET Drags. Either one of them in the rain is a scary ordeal.

It funny you say that. I had 305/35/18 MT on my car and got caught in a down pour at 70mph with no problems. I heard horror storys but, nothin. Ofcourse I can only imagine if I had to make any emergency moves.
