    Not that my opinion matters, I completed it too and added that tire cost was one of the reasons I left.

    I voted cheap, lasts forever first and lap time last.

    I said more or less the same thing.

    Having $1200 tires become trash after one event sucks.

    Would rather buy a $1500 set that is good to the cords like the old days.

    The Nitto NT01 I believe is this tire, l they need to do is put a Toyo logo on it since it's the same factory/company.

    I wasn't here for the old days. I do know I've bought a whole bunch of Toyo RRs that are not useful after 120 minutes of driving.

    $10/minute in tires alone- try to get people into the sport with that figure. Drive slower to reduce your per minute costs...

    I was durability first, single lap time last.

    What's weird is all the tires I've corded after 2 weekends, this year only, have still been fast and easy to drive on. I'm racing on my Hallett tires this weekend after running them 3 weekends ago at HPR. If I cord, I'm subbing some 2020 tires on one at a time. Those have 2 weekends and some CBP on them.
