I used them racing for years and loved them - for dry, mud, everything. I started using schwalbes now cause I think they are lighter but definitely not as tough. I put on crossmarks for the cork nps last year and was one of the few who finished without puncturing in s1.
New tyres are always worth a try and with the weather like this you might just get away with it. I found them a bit fragile and prone to clogging when things got anyway schlompy. But as a dry race tyre well with a punt.
