I think you would need twice the amount of sets of tires. Unless you are planning to change tires every 30 to 60 minutes to give them time to cool down. Don't know if the tires would be able to survive the heat generated from them longer then 1 hour.

We used to run rubber tires on asphalt with the F201s for 45mins and would get many runs like that on a set of tires before we needed to replace them. The F104 rubber seems a good bit softer though so probably won't last as long.

I have logged a number of miles at our local carpet track with my F1 car. I would say TQ Raceway is a medium grip carpet track. Running 571 fronts and 575 rears, I have put 3 UF1 race days and 3 local Club race days on a set and was still competitive so that is about 3.5 hours. .....

Can always use Pardus tires, they are cheap and so far are pretty good this year.
