I continued to used them for another few days as I had committed to instructing but on day 6 they were a good 2 seconds off pace and day 7 was like ice skating.
I'm exploring alternatives for next year but will likely go back to the NT01 for the ease of use and consistency.

Great pics. I'm about to run Day 5 this weekend and I suspect I'm very close to your wear rate - maybe a bit below. I've only got one more event after this so it looks like I'll get a full season with decent grip.
Did you flip the tires on the wheel at some stage? Mine are definitely wearing a bit more on the inside (running -2.9 camber) and I was going to flip them, but to be honest I don't think I could be bothered now.
