Default Hollow or Solid for Track?

I've got a set of hollow spoke turbo wheels and a set of solids for my C4S.

I just recently bought the hollows to use for dedicated track tires. Any reason I should use the solids for the track? Probably won't make a huge difference one way or the other, but just wanted to bounce it off the group to see if there is a compelling reason not to use the lightest wheels for the track.

There is no reason to use the solids. Unsprung weight is the enemy!

hollow on the track. Solid for street where potholes are your enemy.
