I usually get 6 "normal" track days (45 minutes to an hour of track time per day) out of A052s on the BRZ and looks like I'll get about that on the MX-5 as well, though I expected more life on much lighter-weight car...

Very curious where this new Hoosier lands as far as lap times and tire life, and most importantly for me, wet grip...
Interesting. I never bothered with the A052 or RE71 because of their reputation. The closest I have run to them is the RT660 and unless it was a cool cloudy day I couldn’t get more then a couple laps out of them and they were greasy and they only lasted 4 days.

Looks like Maxxis has a new 200TW too.
