Yep. That is the compromise for an As tire. A little too soft for the heat and a little too hard for the cold. Would be a fine tire for a daily driver but would not take the heat of the track for long (like you said). This is where a summer tire would shine and why so many people have dedicated daily and track tires where they just swap depending on what they are doing.
