Yeah it would actually be quite interesting to try and define that somehow.
When I used to work in automotive we created criteria for tyre testing - comparing different brands and tyre types i.e. stopping distance (wet or dry), lap time and even driver confidence.
For a racing tyre, maybe you could have both objective and subjective measures that make more sense on track. Say like peak acceleration, per kg of axle weight, per psi, per deg surface temp, per deg camber angle!
Actually ... maybe this is getting a bit to complex too quickly!
