How well do these H rated qualifiers last on trackdays? I can normally get 4 days plus road miles from a set of sport smarts on my YZF, will I get 4 days out of a new set of qualifiers at Cartegena?

Depends on how you ride. I used a new set for every race meeting but some have done a full year on one set. You will deffo get one front for two if not three rears. The level of grip is outstandng all things considered. :D

One front and two rears for your 4 day's IMO (providing it doesn't rain)

Last year it was 4 sets, so a set every other meeting and they still had enough lie in them to sell on as scrubs for £40 a set.

I maybe mistaken but I think Ghostie may have done a whole season in Class B with one set of tyres

I was mainly putting on a new set every other meeting. Miles did the whole season on one set on his 583.
