Anyone know whether Tire Rack still has any?
Plan B would be the Hankook RS-3's I guess.
Any other suggestions for ~ 200 stickiness tire just for track days or are the RE-71R's worth the wait?
Probably at my level of driving I would not be able to get all the performance out of them anyway as I have a lot of practice ahead of me at only about 7 auto-x so far.

RS-3, Dunlop Star Spec, Rival, RE-11 are all very capable 200tw tires for track days and AX. I often run Saturday on my RE11 or RS-3 and then switch to RE-71 for timed runs to maximize tire wear.
