Basically the street tires will perform better on a green track than one with a lot of race tire laps on it.
Happens at the drag strip as well. "Street tires" or drag radials will pull the rubber up from the starting line leaving bald spots. Had a nice chat (and beers!) with Bill Bader Jr at Norwalk, now Summit Raceway during a Sport Compact event. YEARS ago. Not sure if the newer drag radial compounds, like the street tires SCCA racers now use, play along better. Need a cool Friday night to go check them out
