I've been really pleased with the Goodyears on the track with no traction issues at all given that the tires have had a chance to heat up. How many of you guys are running your Michelins on the Track and what are your comparison thoughts from a Track Perspective vs. the Goodyears?

I had the Michelins on my CTS-V and tracked it with those and I'm still running the original Goodyears on my Camaro on the street. I have only had the Camaro on the track with racing tires. Without actually swapping the tires and running laps it is hard to say for sure but from my experiences I think the Michelins have more grip everywhere, especially when wet. I'm planning on switching to Michelin when the goodyears are gone.
