Got them after the Nov track day on the well worn slicks that came with the motard wheels.

They were useless till the 3rd session, then I had to run a good 4 laps before they had any hook. But the afternoon was a friggin PARTY!!

My first couple years I ran standard Pilot Powers for all my track days. If you can run a strong I-group pace with NESBA on street rubber, you'll love it when you make the transition to race tires.
I may get a set of both. Start the season on some Q2's and transition to slicks by July then
