Since reading the post last night I think he is keeping them, seems to have started the ball rolling in error... every day is a school day.
My strips have got less since I have stopped hanging off so much on the road....

Re: Chicken Strips
Just for interest I picked up a abba tyre change kit a while back so ended up doing a lot of hunting on the web for cheap tyres delivered. This site delivered a Metzler M5 interact rear to my door for £80

Worth a check as even if you don't have the kit to change it yourself it's usually only £10-15 to get a fitter to do it on a loose tyre.
But yeah that seems largely unused for a track day especially given you tend to run lower pressures to give a larger contact patch so naturally splay further into the tyre.
