One thing to consider is NASCAR does not run the road course and chicane at Daytona. They are flat out with 900-950 hp at terminal velocity. Not sure if a rain tire can avoid hydroplaneing at those speeds

The 935s likely turned down the boost and did not run flat out. My guess is they were so much faster than everyone else, even when they were slow, they were fast.

Put 43 935s on the track in the rain, on the full oval, and that might be a little bit dangerous.

It is an interesting question, but the best answer is they do run the Natiowide cars at Montreal in the rain. Only 700 hp though.
