This is the tire that got damaged at Hallett.
If I run it I would put the cut on the inside on a rear tire.
Would you run it or buy a new tire?
There is the smallest imaginable piece of cord that is showing.

If it was mine, I would run it. Be sure that it ends up on the left rear though. Here's why... TWS is CW for this next event. The outsides of the left-side tires and the insides of the right-side tires are going to be taxed the most. Flip it, spank it, mount it on the LR ;)


On second thought, maybe you should dismount it and give it to me for 'testing'...
