Yes I use them and love them. I have set the fastest and most consistent laps I have ever run on them. The tire pressures are quite low, you probably had them over inflated. We start ours at about 26-27lbs cold. Target is 32-34 hot.

They recommend 36-42+ for a 2700-3000 lbs car which I believe I'm in. Now I'm confused lol....
Your race car is like 2,200 lbs right?

Yes thats true but we run at the low end of the scale. The other thing to look at is how much bigger of a tire your running than the stock size. The bigger (wider) the less heat you will build and the lower profile will need less air pressure. If I were driving your car and using air in the tires not nitrogen, I would start them about 26-28 cold...........you might be surprised.
