I don't doubt what you are saying is true, but you really can't argue with the laws of physics and eventually they are going to catch up to you.

I think the squirm is minimal because it is still such a low profile. One of the auto-x clubs I participate in we run 2+ minute runs and 5 or 6 runs in a row with a very short cool down inbetween. By the 3rd run or so I would typically spray water on the tires to cool them off to keep them in their ideal operating range. We beat on them just as hard as you would in a track session, sans the high speed loading. But with that said I do plan to run wider wheels for my track setup, probably 305 or 315 on a 11" rim. And anyways you said you wanted the best street tire not track tire, you're flip flopping, LOL.
