I've used Vittoria Crono CS 24mm and they are light, but puncture flat on the road like crazy (I get that is what you get). Veloflex Record 22s are up there.
Ideally these are <200g, roll well. While I don't see them tested much I think silk is still a great casing. I ordered the Vittoria Corsa Speed G+ Tubular Road to check them out.
Any track tires you might suggest for this?

Part II
I want to use a rigid track glue. Is Soyo the best? What else?
Wrong forum. You should ask in the Road forum.
