I tried and failed to get the sport trac3, I'm on P7's too and they seem fine. I've even nailed them around Donnington and they stood up to that very well.

I'll go out for a bit longer and see if it will burn off. I had a good look around the Ex's whilst going over the mot, all looks ok to me. ...

A session at Bobs showed max power at 5740 rpm
