Default Tire Load Ratings

When deciding on track tires, how much importance are you guys putting on the load rating? In addition to the REO1-Rs, another good track tire would be the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup--comes in a 265/30/19, but is also rated less than 1565 lbs; great tire though. Any thoughts?

Default Pilot Sport Cup tires are awesome on the track

Ubercar runs them.

I chose RE01-Rs for combined street/track. They are good on the track and safe on the street. The PS Cups are better track tires, though. Load ratings are not an issue.
