Looks like you're continuing to improve!
I have improved lots.

Tire pressures are now kept at 32.5 to 34 when hot (starting at 25 - 26 cold). Big difference from what I was doing last year.
DTC60s came and went. They didn't last very long. 6 track days and very limited highway driving. Still like the HT10s more even if they were very rough (initial bite was very aggressive).
Now running with Performance Friction 06. 1 day and a half and can't complain. Mosport is not very demanding on brakes.

I love the NT01s as track tires. Much better than Starspecs but comparing both isn't fair as one of them is R Comp tires.
The fronts lasted 8 track days. Now they are corded. The rears have some life left (3+ more days?)

Now my car needs TLC :
Valve adjustment
Alignment
Oil change
Brake fluid change
Windshield change (a 5in by 8in L-shape crack has appeared from top center)
Full detailing job (she is in bad shape)
