Default Is this tire still good?

www.geocities.com/clublaps/teaser.html
It's a Hankook Z2000 R-compound. This is the outer edge. It's sort of peeling, but it looks like just more rubber underneath. I've used it like this in back for a couple of lapping sessions and an autocross and it hasn't deteriorated. Does it look safe to you guys? The darker areas are just wetness, it rained last night. Thanks.

Vince

I guess it depends on if you have a death wish or not.
