Message	lightweight, good in the rain. I've had both them and Sumitomos on both road and track, and would recommend either tire. The Sumitomos started getting noisy long before they wore out, but they were still otherwise comfortable and grippy. The Contis used to be better priced, but got quite a bit more expensive as the rave reviews started rolling in.
