Race only tires...?

So I was one of the unlucky people to fall foul of the Schwalbe Ultremo bulging situation... Sent off photo's and batch numbers etc and got a set of replacements, which are on their way now (good customer service there).
Couldn't wait over the weekend for the tires to come, so bought a new set (same Ultremo R.1's).
Now, should I save a set just for races nice and fresh etc, or would it be better to get on and use them as and when needed...
Do tires need a little wearing in before grip etc becomes it's prime, or are brand new the best?
Sounds like a silly question I suppose, just want to know what would be best?

Normally need a bit of wear (especially to remove the mould release agent first) before they grip well0

Cool, so a couple of runs on them beforehand and keep them clean and they'll be good?0
