Mike 24hrs and they are good to go. Use them on day2. I have to be honest and say I don't do this at all. I typically run a set of stickers (new never run) for my qualifying session and then race on that set the same day. Longevity is not important to me as being fast for at least one lap in qualifying (new tires have a couple of magic laps that a half a second better than the rest of the tire life). 1st place is 2 free tires from Hoosier and up to 4 a weekend. Fortunately this has been paying off. I am only having to buy a couple of tires a year now with the support from Hoosier. Hawk also provides brake pad coupons, but I recently switched to Pagid and will not go back to Hawk.
