No, not at all. At Road America last year, John Salisbury Jr. raced his LP Spridget on DOT tires (Hoosiers) and told me he wasn't giving up much at all. Chris Ducklow runs both, and he swears the slicks are much better. Chris certainly seems faster on the slicks, but I'd take John's opinion as very educated, though.
