I am relatively new to track events so I am putting a preference on a cost effective tire that gets me lots of seat time, over an expensive tire that is super fast but wears out after a couple of weekends.

Needs in order of importance:

Long life/hard wearing
Cost effective
Great dry grip
Decent wet grip

Don't care about noise or stiffness since it's not used on the street.
Based on your list, NT01, no question. Comes in the size you need, is decently fast relative to the cheater 200tws nowadays. Wears better then anything else except maybe the RS4 which wears even better but is definitely slower.
