George,
That is probably liberal for 60 seconds. PMR did a test at SP, same car, driver and R-6 Vs. R-1, they found R-1's to be 2 seconds slower. The car was either an S2 firehawk or 968 firehawk and times I would estimate to be around 1:30 + or -.
The tire has very consistent handling characteristics and would be a good option for you. I haven't been on R-6's since 11/07 at VIR, but they may exhibit a very slightly more aggressive initial turn in than the R-1's. Hope this helps.
