The results at the end clearly show the A052 as a direct competitor to the RE-71R on track, though I don't know what the test conditions were...cold tire? Warmed up and then a single hero lap? What are they like after 20+ minutes? I see mention of 3 and 6 lap measurements, but I don't know what the ratings were.

This video was extremely helpful. Thank you for sharing. I noticed another compound Potenza RE-05D
Always looking for gymkhana tires as I am into TT.

Anyone outside of the US tried these? Aparently there is RE11S, RE07D, RE12D (a quick google search yields they are all pretty track oriented tires).
For TT next year running 100+ tires gets us a good bit of benefit and if RE-05D (being over a second faster than RE71R) is what it is I want to try these in comparison to Hoosier R7.
