It seems like it would be pretty easy to wear out tires with all the limit accelerating that goes on in autox. I eat up tires pretty quick just daily driving, so I know they'll go fast if I ever get into autox or get out on the track.
A buddy once told me that if your squealing your tires the entire time, you are probably leaving time on the table-- meaning smoother driving that "sounds" slower is usually faster.
