I'm hoping the old school BFG's are fast enough to put me in position to win some new Rival-S's to try.

Therein lies the rub. If the stones are faster than the S, how much contingency will you win?
Fresh old school Rivals should be fast enough on any surface not located at Lincoln Airport - definitely competitive against the star spec and the RS3 as long as you understand the tire (wants plenty of pressure, wants lots of slip angle and thrashing to be fast). Totally agree that people not trying to be at the pointy end of things should jump on this.
