Here is Howard Sartin's track class evaluation from 1995 in the attachment:
Howard used 3 year best drf speeds to adjust from track to track in the version of Synthesis I worked on. He originally used a modification based on track class, but it was less effective than the 3 year best. Neither was that great for a mechanical adjustment so he ended up just saying use your knowledge of your track to mentally adjust.
Followup 52 has the latest stuff Howard wrote on track class and it can be found on Ted's website at:

ATM used to have a track equalization chart, but it was last updated about a decade ago, you can find it here:

To me it seems like asking which tracks are the best is like asking which NCAA conference is the best or which NFL division is best... not really going to put much money in your pocket, just more of a mental masturbation exercise.
