Read the form!

Slicks can be used but that puts you in the "Top Gun" category whereas street legal tyres keep you in the "Club Class" so your runs count towards the Leadfoot Trophy.

Short answer - yes, you can use slicks.

Excerpt from the entry form:
Class

Club Cars will Run Treaded dot approved type tyres and points will be awarded towards Leadfoot Challenge Trophy

Top gun cars can have full slicks but only run in top gun class. No points towards Leadfoot Challenge Trophy [/i]
