what does a few runs mean in your book?
I have not seen this happen in a few runs...less than 10 runs.
I have seen the insert break down on the front tires that I have had for many race days...about 4 to 5 weekends/days of racing...so I would think over 50-60 runs with practice added in.
I have yet to see the insert break or separate and bunch up....not that it couldn't happen I just have not seen it.
Are you doing anything with your tires like soaking them in a bag with traction compound or hitting them with any harsh chemicals?
I only use LGC and SXT for my traction compounds....what are you using?
