Message	:Wondering how they stand up to heat cycling and if they get stickier or slicker with age like some other tires do. I put 200 miles on them here, then 450+ from here to the track. so thats about 650 miles. my alignment for the trip to oklahoma was -.7' on all 4 tires. My alignment at the track was -2.1' fronts, -1.2' rear. i kept that alignment for the trip home and the car was noticably more unstable at speed on the freeway. Initial turn in was soft, ie, not responsive... once they got their bite, which took a second, they 'came in'. I still think I should have run more camber and tire pressures. I am very muuch considering running these tires on an event 5 minutes from me in 3 weeks. but having a REAL track specific tire is obviously FAR more desirable obviously. (remarkably, I got 25.8 mpg on average on the trip too and from the track... i'm not sure what i got on the track...I can assume it wasn't much).
