Yeah, race tires really speed things up. The extra lateral grip gives a much higher corner speed.
I was on the track (MIS) with a M coupe with and without race tires. With the race tires he would leave me in the dust going through the road course. On the street tires, he didn't drop me until the straight. I was in an E-30 M3 with grippy street tires. It was my first school with the car so I didn't go 10/10's, but I did go about 90% after the first couple of sessions. As an example I was still able to get in the vicinity of 130 at the starters tower.
For all those people chastising the street racers, I agree it isn't very smart. But this was on a closed track so WAHOOO!
