Yes, that's completely common w/o tubes(sounds like you don't have tubes).
Don't worry about it. My tires will lose up to 5-7lbs over a couple weeks time.
Also, it is even worse when you first install the tires on the rim, and don't drive them, giving them a chance to seal. A good burnout, and day at the track usually will seat them really well.
What you described is perfectly normal with slicks/ET streets

I hate tubes personally. I even run tires screwed to the rim with no tubes. To me, tubes should be a last possible option.
It doesn't hurt to throw a little air in them every time you go to the track anyways, so it doesnt bother me
