While I agree I wouldn't run Super Sports on the track - Bridgestone tires are very heavy compared to Michelin. I always find it amusing when guys spend huge amounts of money for fancy lightweight wheels and fail to look at tire weight. As an example - when shopping for street tires for my Cayman S daily driver - I decided to look at the weights of various options. I didn't buy because of this but I found it interesting.

The RE-11 in 245/35/19 is 28lbs and the MSS is 23lbs
in 265/35/19 it's 29lbs vs 25lbs. Pretty significant difference.
