So its basically a inferior tire to both of those in pure laptimes or ability to extract time out of them. I will say that the very first lap out on them (straight into attack mode), that very first heat cycle, they are easily half a second per minute faster. I've never had a tire with such a marked drop off in grip after the first cycle. In that one first cycle, they blew the yokos and stones out of the water by a mile, but it only lasted 2 laps, then it was back to "normal" 200TW auto/time attack grip levels.

Edit: didnt compare directly to either of those tires (as I had no mounted set) but did compared them to Maxxis RC1 (r1 compound), which are around the same speed as nittos, or about 0.5 per minute slower than the yokos. Falkens were about .3 to .5 seconds per minute faster. So pretty much there, a touch slower but a bit numb in the steering feel.

Out of curiosity, what size are you running and what are your alignment specs? Where did you settle on hot pressures?
