The NT-01s are so much cheaper than the rest of the field (including its older brother the R888). Not to mention you get an $80 discount with Speed Ventures when you buy a set. Its all a money game at this point plus you have to consider the tread depth and treadwear. NT-01s will last considerably longer and are much cheaper than the R6, Z214, R1...

It works out to be something like $350 dollars saving That's extra track time

NT05 looks so sticky. Might have to try it out.

Just to let you guys know, my friend ran these the past weekend on california speedway and said these were absolutely terrific. However, california speedway isn't really as hard on the tire as say buttonwillow or streets of willow.
