19 " race tyres, yo

So what's the tire of choice for the Period 2 class, specifically my CB450. I had some Goodyear DTs that I ran on my supermotard bike at NHIS, and Jerry said they were borderline for his track, he thought that they were a bit too "coarse", which I found hard to believe. Is there a restriction on tire choices, besides treaded only?
Anyway, planning ahead, so I need a lead on a supplier.
Also thinking about running the aforementioned supermotard in the Singles class. It's an '86 XL600. Think they'll let me in?

19inch race tyres are hard to come by, but Avon has one. You can run whatever you want for tyres, Frank C is still running the same pair from the 60's.

The 600 will be fine in the Singles class.
