On the road you should be nowhere near the limits of a sports touring tyre yet still be able to ride as fast as anyone else. On track a normal tyre or semi sports tyre is good enough to run at the front of the fast group but lots of us fit stickier tyres as we like and excess of grip as we just don't have the skills to judge how much grip there is. Even at the top end of club racing I doubt there is more than a handful of people who can make a bike slide, less so those that can control it once it's sliding. Personally I never have the rear sliding and can prob count the times it's happened accidentally on one hand. I'd like to know how you can judge the grip without exceeding it as that's not something I want to do.
