IIRC, running a mean of 75 - 80 mph (where appropriate for speed limits and traffic flow) in the flats with light tailwinds, consumed about 340 wh/mi, which equates to 51 kwh per 150...

    Tire/Rim Track Day Suggestions

    Some Tangential Experience Hi Brightonuk, with the caveat my experience comes from auto-x in a much lighter (~2500 lb) car, I'm a big fan of the Kumhos as they combine a ridiculously stiff sidewall with gobs of grip in a lightweight shell. Personally, I'd look at a lightweight 17-18" forged...
