It was LH front on a left hand circuit (only a couple of RH turns - mostly LH turns hence "left hand circuit") so at least I was spared understeer.

Just tore up 5 x $100 bills - tyre had only done 6 heat cycles and was less that 50% worn ......

Don't you just hate that when it happenings.

On the bright side. You don't blow it out and cause more damage.
