I don't know enough about the chemistry of tires to respond to much of Adam's point (I think I generally disagree though - if I read it right). But I will say that, having done a track day on all seasons in Sept., I noticed a HUGE difference b/c hot and cold. A hot all season tire is like driving on marbles - the car was VERY loose and the tail would inch around with any application of the throttle. Great for drifting, I'm sure, but scary at an HPDE.
