Just get some heat in them by doing some laps. They will be fine. Started a day at Road Atlanta at 24f.. no issues after some heat in the tires.

Wasn't that bad
I ran mine in Phoenix for 6 years .We don't get much rain ,but I didn't have any problem in the rain if I took it easy. As far as cold ,we don't get that cold , but they do suck until they warm up if you have a heavy foot. But when the road temp /tires are over 90 degrees and its dry ,they are sticky as hell and in their element. MILES OF SMILES.

This was Barber in Feb this past year. Temps got in the Teens ovenight. I was running GY3’s. Put them in an enclosed trailer overnight with a space heater, but the tires were still in the low-30’s with Pyrometer before first laps.
I ran 32 for warm up laps and gradually brought them up. Yes, the first session is a throw-away, but track temp makes it that way anyway. Slowly bringing them up and not underinflating will save your weekend. I think the key is you dont want to over-flex the sidewall and crack them on your first session.

Well I'm sure it won't get that cold here, but its good to know that I should be ok with temps in 40's to low 50's. The I first saw your picture I thought that you had gone off the track do to cold temps and it was covered in dust. I had to look twice to see the frost.
