I need to purchase some new clinchers track tyres. Most manufactures have a range of tubular track tyres but what if your running clinchers? Suggestions most welcome or are there reviews out there? Steve

Lighter road race clinchers seem to be popular at my local track.

Michelin Pro3 Light
Vredestein Fortezza Superlite
Veloflex Record
Continental GP Supersonic
Gommitalia Ginio or Targa
and any of the Tufo tubular clinchers that have file tread.
S33
S3 lite
Elite Jet

Turn left!!!!

Aye, lighter, smooth rolling road clinchers are fantastic.

Veloflex Record #1 in my books, and the fastest guy at our track.

I use Conti GP4000s on the road, but they roll very well, and would be happy with them on the track too.
