I bet. I have driven a few cars (not my own) on stickers, and I know that's essentially a different world all together. Not willing to spend over $2k per season on that type of rubber though, and I don't change between track and street in terms of pads or tires.
Been there, but too much effort given where my life is at at this point in time. Now I'm all about max lap times for the least effort. So 200 thread wear tires and DTC60s is my daily setup now.
Honestly the only reason I went Cup2s on my last car was because I was chasing a sub 8 min Nurburgring Nordschleife lap. It worked, I managed a 7:47 pace and a 7:52 lap overall. But that was limited chances/time and all or nothing kind of circumstances. Now I can be more sensible

In 80F + weather, I think they grip about the same on the street. What I liked about the Cup2 is that they ALWAYS seemed to have more grip in reserve when I needed it on track. But they were hilarious when it was low 40s and damp.
