Nobody talks about that because we all buy "track day tires" for the track.
I'd love to know if the traditional summer street tires like the PS4S or Continental equivalent will hold up to the heat generated by a stock powered 86 without the grip giving out and me wasting a 7/10th lap to get them to come back.

^^ what he said.
Id rather have a tire that is consistent over the entire session even if it sacrifices some ultimate grip. Its not a race, I could care less if Im 1 second slower per lap.
