tread = traction in variable road and weather conditions

compound= hardness or softness of a tire are another big contributing factor, and thats why higher speed rating street tires, as well as slicks, dont last as long as regular street tires, the softer they are the better they stick the faster they wear.

so a properly prepared track + a hot soft slick = traction (somtimes)
