Grib,
I love it when someone like you proves, again, that "What Everyone Knows" is
sometimes (frequently) totally wrong.
You have made a true breakthrough by running rain tires. I have watched
several teams try the NASCAR slicks with mixed results (the best was just OK).
Your comment:
"..there's plenty of open space in the tread designed to expel water (and air)"
must describe what is happening.

Now if someone could get Goodyear to do a CDF study ........ this principal 
my be adaptable to ultra high speed (500+) tires.

I didn't think your tires would work. I failed to even consider the rain
tire design. 
Thanks for proving completely wrong Grib.

When will we have tires designed to aerodynamically increase grip?

Bryan
