I autocross on the Hankooks and absolutely love them! As someone else said, they come in three different compounds, with C71 being the softest (autocross) which is what I run. Dealing with anything under 2 minutes, I don't think there is a better tire out there (I'm making Hoosier owners green with envy by kicking their asses since last summer). They are also sooo much cheaper than Hoosiers, and the Hoosier guys tell me that they are wearing unbelievably well (I'm new to race rubber, so was seeking advice).
Having said that, if you take that same tire on a 12 mile run, it will overheat and turn to grease on you. I do recommend this tire, but you will want a harder compound that is meant to deal with those conditions. Sorry for the late response (had a small detour/fight with cancer). Hope this helps... .
