Re: Tires for track ( not slicks)
I have a diablo rosso 2 on the rear of mine, which seems pretty good.
Front is a Dunlop Q3, which seems to be a good tyre and has pretty good reviews.
Both of the tyres are better than I am though, so I'm probably not the best indicator.

Re: Tires for track ( not slicks)
Ive been leaning towards the Diablo's because I dont use Tyre warmers on practice days or track days, I find most road tyres dont heat cycle like race tyres do, and many track day rides like to look like GP stars in the pits but once on track they are no quicker than me for the first few laps . I like taking the first 2 laps easy while I get my eye in and body warmed up anyway .
