This will give people a better idea of what a consumer can expect if they decide to track their vehicles, as most will upgrade the rubber the first chance they get.

This would also likely shrink the gap between many vehicles...but would provide much better data.
How about pad materials? MRC tuning? Wheel or rotor material? Should all those be equalized also?

Each manufactuer makes decisions to tune a package. The GT350R and TP are both track specific models that where heavily tested. This is the combination that Ford engineers went to provide the best.
