Dunlop Qualifiers?

Supposed to be good, unlike previous Dunlop efforts. I don't know anyone personally who uses them, though, other than guys who still have them on as OEM fitment on their road bikes.


Conti Race Attacks?

Those will be my choice for the last round of the PMCC summer series and for the Vic club winter series, if I do it.


Avon Viper Sports? Michelin Pilot Sports?

Those are road tyres. Gosh.

To answer the original question, I haven't tried the Racetecs (them as ride on 'em seem to love 'em; they're supposed to be a very n00b-friendly progressive-handling tyre), but I definitely prefer Race Attacks to Supercorsas.

And it could just be my imagination, but I seem to see and hear about a lot of issues with cold shearing in SCs. They don't seem to hang together very well under NZ track conditions.

So, given the original choice, I'd definitely go for Racetecs.
