I just moved to a 10.5 square TA5R setup. I ran Laguna yesterday on a NT01 275 square setup. The braking and front end grip is much better compared to my previous 18/9.5/22et EC7. However, the 275 in the rear was a bit less happy, and something wider would be better.

I was getting 4-5 days out of most my NT01. For some reason that last set only made it 3 days. Not sure if it was pace or just luck. Same alignment setup as always. -3f 0 toe / -2r.

Im aiming to run 295 square on the 10.5. Also not to keen on dropping rear to 275. Didnt like how it felt the one time I ran 275 rear on track.
I havent had much concern with the 275/295 ECF setup. The rear has been ok the few events ive done. Even with 30 profile (since they dont have 35 for that size)

1:40.92 at Laguna. Sub 1:40 is definitely doable with the right traffic. It is certainly interesting to see how much time is lost on the shifts by looking at the throttle linear gauge.
