Race wets - just like R-Spec tyres - will not tolerate any more than a modest number of heat cycles (each time you take the car out and run it for much more than 3-5 miles = 1 heat cycle).

I'd imagine that after 20 heat cycles, the rubber chemistry will change and the tyres will lose grip and actually be worse than a DD tyre, especially a premium DD tyre.

I would not do it.
