So I DD my evo, and I want a sticky tire to go to the track with. I dont go to the track often enough to justify buying DR's or slicks, so what is the stickiest street tire? for stock wheel size btw.

Since this is your DD, I would seriously look into a sticky all season tire. Something like a Pilot Sport. Performance tires have a stiff sidewall, and sketchy traction in bad weather. All seasons will have a softer sidewall, which is what you want, especially in a DD.

Didn't Curt Brown run some pretty amazing times on the RA1's?

Toyo RA-1 is WAY STICKIER than the RT-615. It is not a drag tire, but it will do a great job. Treadwear is only 100 though, they don't last for ****. Not dissing the RT-615. It is a great compromise and will last way longer than the RA-1.
Nitto Neo-Gen's are a joke.
