Yes it's very specific... figured i'd ask
So the track setup is going to be quite different to the road setup. Track setup will scrub DD tyres in < 1000kms main becuase of excessive camber and a bit of toe-out.

Bottom line is give away R-Spec tyre drip but tracking with DD set up OR wear out DD tyres with DD setup OR get your favorite alignment shop to set up for track on Friday and reset on Monday.

Its the only way to resolve the dichotomy.

Failing that, take to most acceptable compromise ... slightly slower on track or wear out DD tyres in .25 to .5 of expected life.
