Yup, couple of our good customers have Outlaw 10.5 cars we built. Two nitrous, one twin turbo. They tell me 10 to 12 runs on average on the nitrous cars. If testing they will stretch that number out, but for racing, they change no more than 12 runs.

Heck, even at 40 runs a set for my 275 tires, I can run the whole season on 2 sets. lol

The consistency from the tire I run is impressive. The last race I had the following 60's (second run we made a tune up change). This was with the launch retard detuned due to extremely cold air/track temps. High of 44 degrees, absolutely no sun to warm the track. Also had equal luck on a very high track back in July with air temps at 102, track temp 140+ degrees.
