Boris, When I had my 993, I always ran at the track with used Hoosiers. I have a supplier that will ship them to you from the east coast, ends up costing like $80 a tire. They always lasted a long time for me and since I wasn't racing, I never needed the extra gription that a new tire afforded - especially at $250 a tire. Let me know and will email you the contact info as he is not a board sponsor.

The other thing about the Bob Chick tires is that most of them are from the Grand AM Cup and they use a different compound from the normal Hoosiers.
These tires are a bit harder and have a longer treadlife, which is a good thing for DE's.
