did you actually look at your title?

typical is 5-10k miles, the huge variance is depending on how you drive. really fun tire. little sketchy when cold but massive grip in warm weather

Nice tires , I like them a lot, maybe 3 -4 weekends driving hard on big track. Not for the street unless you like picking up all the rocks.

Yes, the NT-01 is definintely designed to be used only on the racetrack. They need a hot lap to reach the temperature where they will give you track-level performance. Plus the price and treadlife make them a poor choice for street use.

To answer your question, I get about 1200 track miles with these tires.

Yes this tires are great, but they dp pick up every little rock, have them mounted on a couple spare rims I had in my garage. I'm only running them in the front, I have neo gens in the back. I set my launch control to 5k on my s300 and they hooked really good
