Very interesting. I mentioned them bc they're my current track tires and the tire wear has been surprisingly good (for the category) in my experience, coming from Nitto NT05's. Haven't felt the grip level to be inconsistent, but I could see why you'd want different tires.

As wparsons mentioned, I think you'd be fine on RS3's. I tried those on track and liked the grip when hot. They got slightly greasy halfway through each 25 minute session, but that was on a 3400+ lbs, 340 whp car so probably wouldn't have that issue on an Twin (as long as you aren't overdriving it haha).

Let us know how you like them. I've actually got a set of RS3's on my backup track wheels, just haven't had a reason to use them yet.
