Anything with a spring-plate is questionable on track. If you don't want to use spikes then gets a pair of Takumi Sen (still cheaper even if you have to get them oversea).
Seriously.... GET A GRIP
What is with you guys and the Takumi Sen? It's not particularly light (twice as heavy as the RF Pro), and not even available in the US as far as I can see.
What does it make you think that you need PEBAX on track? The RF "normal" edition has still that foam and is awful on a track. Try it if you don't believe it. The various iterations of the 4% are awful when you bend, and better hope the track is dry. TS's grip is phenomenal due to the small lugs on the outsole. You are racing a 5k at (best case) sub-elite level so a weight well under 200g is more than adequate. You guys wanna run fast on a track or play gimmicks on a blog....
