It's more as a sighting lap... tires fresh off warmers are typically way hotter than they are after a warm-up lap as they start cooling down as soon as you take the warmers off.
I've got an I.R. temp gun... my warmers get em up to about 160+ degrees and that's hotter than when I come off the track after a race.
