I can't see the pic but most tire warmers are what they are.
Most DOT Racing tires need heat to be sticky. Your 1st run is usually not enough to get them warm and as soon as you pull into the paddock the tires start to cool down. Keeping heat in them with a tire warmer helps them keep their temps.

Maybe that will be the next hot trend in the sh0w scene.
On a slightly related note, how do you guys cool down your tires between runs? (for greasy tires like the azeni's)
