Need some help deciding on a summer / autocross / lapping tire!

I know the GForce sports aren't really in the same class of tire, but they would be more of a budget approach. I more or less threw them in there as an example of a harder compound street tire that would last on the street, but might still be a fun tire for autocross. I'm pretty sure they get used as a spec tire for various car control schools... i think the skip barber school uses them, but that might just be because they're predictable and cheap.

Good call on the Ecsta XS though. I'll have to check those out for the money
