Nope. you are not that far off. I ran a 2:23 on old R888 and 2:25 on new Direzza Z1 SS in my RX-8 at VIR. If they were the Hoosiers or R1s, then the gap should be bigger.
The new street tires are surprisingly quick, even though they don't feel like it. Sometimes I wonder if it is worth all the extra effort and money to run multiple sets of tires
