So, I'm an idot and rode a front wheel meant for indoor pre-mounted with a Vittoria Evo at the SD paved track, and got a puncture of course. My rear disc has a Conti Stayer, and I was thinking of just matching up the front to that...but any reason to pick a different tire?

I will only use this front tubular for races (SD paved, and LA wood), I'll use Ellipse wheels and outdoor tires for training in SD ongoing. So ideally, if I could pick a tire that grips well at varying speeds on the wood (slow sometimes) and carries speed well, and can also be used occasionally on the paved track for races, that would be ideal.

I'm asking too much, right? A tire that grips well going slow on the wood, is also fast, is durable...why don't I just ask for something that hovers?!
