Tires are doing quite well. I think the camber plates from TC Kline are helping out on the even wear.
Tony, I think this covers it:

Why we go to the Track:

"The reality is that the line between a butt-puckering near-miss and a life-altering event is absolutely razor thin. We put ourselves in a
thousand potentially disastrous situations during every lap around the track. Our brains and our bodies are constantly dealing with a flood of
sensory input and making decisions and adjustments in real time.
In many way, that's what makes the sport so appealing. That intense level of physical and mental concentration, much like a "runner's high,"
is a powerful narcotic that sinks its hooks into our brains from the moment we clip that first perfect apex."
