takeoffs. buy takeoffs. you will spend $50 for a $150 tire that you won't know any difference about. like others have said, its not the tire that crashes the bike, its the rider. and chances are you wont be putting down times fast enough to slide even IRCs around (if you were doing it right, i mean) but you dont want to get scared by the tire slipping a little bit and have it cause you to freak out leading to a crash now do you?

i'm of the mindset work with the least to become the best but for your first track day maybe just work with fresh rubber on getting to know that big wonderful ribbon of black tarmac we call home.
