Default whats a good track tire?

What's a good, reasonably-priced, track-only tire? I think im gonna get a set and throw them on my old AP1 wheels for the occasional track days i'd like to go to. They dont have to be street legal or anything.

TIA

RA1's...I know tire rack is also having a special on RE01R's, they're not full on race tires, but they're pretty sticky.
