OPR (Other Peoples Rubber)

For those of you who've tracked their cars, you may already know this but I'm posting here for everyone else. I had a chance to drive 3 'parade laps' with 25 other cars at the SRO Fanatec GT race in Sebring this weekend. They were fairly aggressive laps, and I managed to hit 105 between turns 16 and 17.

They led us onto the track right after a GT4 race, but they didn't blow the track off like they normally do in between races. Quite a bit of soft, sticky rubber accumulated on everyone's tires as a result. I drove 530 miles home with my tires extremely out of balance, trying to wear this crap off them. Not sure how long it will take to come off.

One of the MANY reasons I'd never put a nice daily on the track. Track time needs dedicated track cars, or learn to love the destruction.
