A052 is a competition tire like NT01 and R888R, and not a "street tire" like the RE71R. Reportedly as much as 1 second per track mile faster than RE71R. I hope so as I'm getting a set for my Cayman
Methinks the 200 treadwear rating is specifically to make it "legal" in some classes, despite not being a real "street tire"...
