On my short list:
Re71r & Learn how to drive
Rs4
Nt01
Maxxis vr-1
The specs that matter
E85, coilovers, 17x9 wheels

Any thoughts from the peanut gallery?
Hoosier R7 is the answer you're looking for.

None of those tires you've listed are as sticky as the 71R. The 71R is a one lap wonder, and not designed for full track sessions. It really isn't a "200TW" tire at all.
