Anyone have experience with the New Dunlop Sport Maxx Tires? Better than PS2's?

seems like Dunlop is catching up... their new Super Sport Race tire got great review & most of the customers love them.

ColorChange is infamous around these parts
I've heard good things, initial report, at least as sticky, may not last quite as long.

I like the large tread blocks at the edge. I also like the water shedding V pattern.
I thought there was another Dunlop that was a race compound though. I believe it had a similar pattern. Am I right with this thought?
