I think I'd rather work up an adjustable rear sta-bar (or add one for the track if one is not present for street duty).
Methinks "R" tires heat up (and potentially overheat) at different rates than non-R tires. I'd expect the handling balance to shift over the course of a session, in addition to whatever happens to the levels of available grip. There are certainly handling differences to be found when you mix tires across manufacturers (or even across different tire models from the same manufacturer), which may ultimately not be in the direction you seek, or excessively so in the direction you do.
Norm'08 GT coupe, 5M, suspension unstockish (the occasional track toy)
'19 WRX, Turbo-H4/6M (the family sedan . . . seriously)
Gone but not forgotten dep't:
'01 Maxima 20AE 5M, '10 LGT 6M, '95 626, V6/5M; '79 Malibu, V8/4M-5M; '87 Maxima, V6/5M; '72 Pinto, I4/4M; '64 Dodge V8/3A
