If you're just limited to those two, I would choose the Dunlop. In that same market segment (budget performance tires), the Kumho Ecsta SPT and the Yokohama ES100 are both worth considering as well.

Since you're planning to use them for an occasional track day, I would consider spending a bit more for a bit better performance. The Kumho Ecsta MX and the Toyo T1R are both a step up for a little more money. And if you are willing to take another step up from there, the Goodyear F1 GS-D3 is an awesome street tire.
