    FastTrak are for hardpack mainly - if you intend riding mainly that sort of terrain I can recommend armadillo's. If it's a bit more squishy ( for that read "wet" and / or "muddy" ) you'll want something with a bit more "bite". I'm riding The Captain at the mo. - excellent. Have had 2 x ( huge ) thorn punctures, but both times I've got home before discovering the problem - first one took over 24 hours to lose pressure ( down from 40 to about 30psi ) and the other didn't go down until I pulled the monster thorn out of the tire.
