Could easily be conditions from one day to another, but I expected to be flying on 888R. At least close to my Cup2 times given I had another 30 or 40mm of rubber up front (and it doesn't need more in the rear). My biggest problem with PSS is that they are greasy by the second full lap.

If your tires are full on greasy on the 2nd full lap, are you sure you aren't just flat over-driving the snot outta the car? Running too much cold pressure ? What hot pressures are you getting right after you pit out? I run with a few people in grand sports on NT01s and they are super sensitive to a few pounds of cold pressure either way...
That could explain the lack of gain from the R888R - any tire can be over driven and once it's out of its operating temp range, it's a losing battle until you back off and cool the tire back to its happy place
