Tire Knowlege Needed

Back to the original question:

What is the bike going to be used for?
track only?
or will it be used as a street bike too?
What are the rules for the race series?
Are a specific tire mandated?
a tire brand?
how about DOT slicks?
is the investment (and continued investment) in slicks worth it for your goals?
would a spare set of wheels with your race tires be worth it for a street bike?

before you settle on a tire those are some important questions to answer
