   The scenario you paint equally applies to new tirea. I could also be hit by a meteor...I'm gonna go with 40 yrs road experience though on this one...rubber is rubber...Lets remeber all tires are used tires once you drive 1ft on them

    There are risks you can control and ones you cannot. The choices are individual.

    1.6 mm is 20% of 8mm or 17.8% of 9mm

    
    this is not true at all.
    
    explain why racing tires are slick.

    I have, had a complete blowout about 5yrs ago doing about 65, it wasn't a big deal (other than having to put the donut on in 100F weather).

    The Material racing tires are made out of is much more "sticky" than a standard road tire...that's why they are only good for a couple of hundred laps or less...they also swap them out if it rains for treaded tires.
    
    Stay in school kid.
