Yea, usually during the HPDE days they only allowing passing in a few spots unless you are in the advanced run group. It's hard to pass even on the decently long straight between turn #3 and turn #4, unless you have a lot more power than the the other guy and he waves you by right away.

You are probably safer not running the slicks, unless you have a lot of experience with your car. Normal tires will be a lot more predictable.
