Poor guy. He should have mentioned spritzing water onto his tires to cool them off. That would have worked, I'm sure of it.

Depends on the type of tire. Too hot, many are too greasy by the end of the run, so you cool them down so they'll be "at" operating temp.

Even todays r-compounds are that way, but most street tires too.

I'm guessing it's funny if you have audio.
