I have a similar experience with the Sottozeros, getting going can be tough (open diff/fwd) but cornering/braking are excellent. What really impresses me is the dry and wet grip since I throw these on in October, there's not really any performance loss IMO compared to your average UHPAS or factory summer tire. I have autocrossed on them as well in both wet/dry and I'm pretty certain they perform as well as the stock Bridgestone RE050A summers for street and autox.
