for Star Specs. Great value, awesome performance, and aren't as noisy as the KDW2's

Really depends on your budget and what you mean by track time vs normal driving. Also, here are some extra punctuation marks I have laying around. Feel free to use them; they might help with future posts:

I know I keep preaching them but...Star Specs are SO good!! They're getting a little more exp than they used to be but, as far as price/performance they are def in the top 3 imo.
I'm on my second set of them now, and I still can't believe how well they do in the wet.

i was able to go wot in 2nd and through 3rd with star specs in a heavy downpour. That speaks for their wet traction.
Where as with my BFG G-Force if the pavement is even a little wet it meant it'd have to watch out because i'd spin the tires with ease.

I hear good things about them, good value too.
I ran the KDWs and loved them. They were easy to live with on a day-to-day and also did well in the mountains with some heat in them. I also like the GSD3s too. Good tires but cost was high. Read the reviews at TireRack.com to help you pick the right tire for a good price.
FYI, Discount tire will price match TireRacks price if you want to get them local.
