    they closed the track twice because of hurricane fay raining on it. z rated are gummier and do help with launches a bit.

    Z rated is a speed rating... not a rubber compound...

    are you stupid or ignorant... if the "Z rated" tire had a gummier rubber that means its softer... its the metal cords and kevlar and construction of the tire that allows its to sustance the high speeds.. high speeds also create higher temps, so again they have to withstand the softer rubber at high temps which the high temps make it even a softer rubber from coming apart... its not the rubber that alone makes the tire a Z rated tire... its the construstion.. you can have a Z rated tire that is hard as a rock and will last 60k but mostly they last much less than that...
