It really depends on track temps during the event and how you drive the tires, if you're smooth and don't stress them early in the session they should perform just fine.

Now if you're looking for a reason to justify buying new tires.....by all means don't let me stand in your way.
Fun? I thought this was business! Oh, well that changes things lol. The simple things i seem to forget.
