If you're looking for a stricly auto-x tire,

the PSC' are good, but they come shaved to 6/32 tread and are a softer compound than PS2's. You might want to get them heat cycled before hand to maximize their life.

I've heard these are a better track tire than auto-x because they take a while to heat up and are best when hot.

Victoracers are just he opposite; they get hot faster but can overheat at the track. There was a longish article on this either in Panorama or Excellence a few years back with lots of detail.

The PSC are different from a lot of other softcompund tires since they actually have tread on them, as does the Victoracer. Many R compound tires have no tread or just a groove or two around the tire.

If you're looking for a tire for both street and auto-x use, the Falken 615 has gotten some rave reviews as a good in-between tire; not R compound but better than a high [performance street tire. Also, Yokohama has new tire out which is suppose to be a s good or better than the PS2.
