Finally, a few weeks ago a buddy of mine says "You need to look into Mr. Tuffy liners or something". So, $16 and several hundred miles later and I haven't had a flat since.
Putting tire liners in good racing tires is a total waste. If you're willing to use tire liners, you're better off starting with flat resistant tires as they'll be much cheaper, easier to use, more flat resistant (with tire liners, you're not getting any sidecut protection), and you'll get far more miles out of them.
