I really disliked the A032-Rs. They did not stick as well as MPSCs (maybe a bit less than RA-1s too) and were so noisy they drove me nuts (a very short drive 
). Others I know that tried the Dunlops did not like them as well as the MPSCs either - not as sticky and died quickly. Most of my info is from my cars 2800 & 3100 lbs or others with cars of similar weight and most in 205 or 225 and 255 or 275 on 17" rims.
From my experience and the folk I talk to out here (where summer track days are typically 90-100 and it does not rain), MPSC are better for trying to get the fastest lap times and are good for a second or two compared to RA-1s (on a 3 mile track like Thunderhill or Buttonwillow). However, the RA-1s last much longer so they are much more economical. Yes, Hoosiers are faster yet, but they last even less than MPSCs.
