The Dunlop distributor (that supplies Steve at the LRRS events) has some good deals going right now...
I just picked up a set of D209GP (just $22 extra delivered to wherever-home your fav bike shop).

Steve at Dunlop race is very knowledgeable - tell them what you are planning to use them for and they will help you figure it out...

For track events I would keep away from the entire latest Dunlop race tires, like the Ntec's, even on a purpose track day bike - a lot of hassle.
The Ntec rear runs around 23lbs pressure, HOT (17-19 cold). They really don't work without warmers.. –I have heard without warmers and their stifft walls (to handle such low pressures) don’t allow heat build quick enough before cold tearing starts. In addition re-valving suspension is needed to get the best from the Ntec....but if you’re bike is properly set grip lasts longer...

SO, unless you're turning fast(est) race guys times. go for the now lower price +1 year old design....

Graham was Penguin selling the 208 series last year for $200-ish or were those 09s?

In the Dunlop garage at LRRS, I'm pretty sure they were selling 209GP's...and only supplying a few folk with Ntec...later in the season they had plenty of Ntec if you were willing to hand over big$...

I don't know about the 200$ price... they may have been street 209's....

i tried those N-Tecs when i was on Fuckedups GSXR...scary without warmers. i almost lost the rear at 15mph leaving the pits...i thought i had a flat. after i put warmers on though they were awesome.

I have a set on the Superhawk and took the thing out a week ago. Left the driveway only to be met by the ass end going sideways. Those Ntecs are like ice
