You said "i dont think the prius tire holds the car back as much as this forum would like to think", I provided proof that you are wrong. Nobody that is serious about tracking any car would put Primacy tires on it. It is not rocket science here, they are not meant for performance. As far as the WRX and Speed3, they were both tested using Dunlop Ultra High Performance rated summer tires. They most likely would have benefited the least from a tire swap. Now if you put Michellin Primacy tires on all three cars and ran the tests it would have been interesting
