I do remember saying the instructor thought I was overheating them, we kept on dropping pressure out throughout the day. At the end of some sessions, they were 40-42psi, even when starting cold around 30-32. They would get slick, car would just slide (which is super fun -- but not ideal obviously)...

Another guy was running the 4S's on his Audio RS4, had a similar issue but on the outside of his tires. 4S's def are not track tires -- guess I'll have to see if I can get a new set of tires before next weekend.
