Goodyear F1's not good track rubber

This is a guys web site I frequent a bit that has a Mini in his stable of cars.

His most recent page involving his Mini points out graphically how some street tyres (Goodyear F1's in this instance) aren't really made to be used in racetrack situations. Looks like he's overheated them to extremes, something to watch out for if you do track days a bit.

Did you keep your old wheels Darryl.

Damn, he is referring to GSD3s that was one expensive track day for him.
