Default MT drag radials

I want to buy some new rear tires. Decided on the mt drag radials but want to know how long they are expected to last. I dont drive my car hard at all. And take it to the track a couple times a summer? Any guesses?

Have mine on for the last week because I'm too darn lazy to put the stockers back on. I haven't road em hard and put em away wet yet, but from what I've read 15K is the max. You see hardly any track time and don't drive it hard so I'd strongly suggest a good sticky summer tire as it would give you the performance but last longer. Just my .02, ofcourse. Either way, darn it feels good to hit the gas and just go forward...really fast.
