Just put the flat spot on top and you will be ok.
LoL

Yep, flat spot about the size of a beer can - maybe 2 inches across ......... and every time I braked after that I could feel it pinch the tyre again.

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 ......
