Can anybody compare the BT016s against conti's sport attacks? For either road or track

I have many a time made the same comment to before also Fred but I am resigned to thinking that for the grip levels they offer I am happy to live with the short life.

Road 2 rear, Power 2 front is working very well for me so far... Best tyres I used on the road in the last 80,000Km. I wouldn't complain with Power 2 on the rear as well, but can't justify the tyre life.
