Post DE Tire consumption?

Assuming running with appropriate pressures, what is the typical life expectancy of high performance street tires and competition tires on the track?

While on the subject - what impact does autocrossing have on tires?

A lot is also going to depend on your suspension setup, too. But, from my experience I normally get 6-7 track days (90 minutes of driving per day) out of my street tires. Not too sure about today's R-compound tires, however. I used to autox my '94 Integra GS-R (mid-90s) with BFG R1s and I could get about 10 events out of those tires.
