Its tendency isn't go "move outwardly from the center," but rather to continue traveling in the same direction (in a line tangent to the circle, basically). It's just Newton's first law. There is no special force at work.

if you are able to maintain maximum acceleration with three square inches of contact, what benefit does four square inches bring?

grip = (coefficient of friction) * (surface area)

reducing traction is not faster, but reducing resistance is. it's a fine play between the two...

I guess, but in the context of tires, the benefits of an increase in traction are always going to outweigh the negative effects of an increase in "resistance."

try some tact next time, and some embellishment behind your statements.
for someone who hasn't invested much signal to this forum, you sure are making a lot of noise....

Sorry for the lack of tact. It honestly seems that you are misrepresenting your expertise, though, which is bad for the noobs.
