I've run NT01s a few times in the past and they were decent but I didn't love their steering feel on track, honestly I was fine with the RT660s when they lasted 5-6 events but this delamination issue has dropped their life to 2-3 events max over my last 2 sets which is absurd.

I might be stupid and try the new RE71RS as they're $100 off at TireRack ($275/tire). Assuming they're similar in wear characteristics to the OG RE71Rs I'd be fine getting 6 days out of them as that's 2-3 sets a year.

Another option is RE71RS on one set of tires for the morning while the track is cool and scrubs for the afternoon when I typically overheat 200tws.

For folks who have picked up scrubs from UsedRacingTires.com, how many days were you able to get out of their used Pirelli or Hankooks?
