Thought's re same tires for track & daily

I've gone back and forth on the idea of track tires. I had a set of track tires for a while - and the following led me to go decide to use same tires for track and road (at least for a while):
I want to get a feel for how my car handles in road configuration.
I'm still on a learning curve - and prefer the more detectable break-away of road tires to the R-compound behavior.
Maybe I'm not aggressive enough on track - I've been getting 4 events + a years worth of street driving - so I'm not burning them up in one or 2 sessions. If I do, that will change my approach quickly.
I'm a city dweller - so walking and public transit means my mileage is very low, and I'm not aggressive on street driving - so my road tires age out based on normal driving.
Cheers,
Paul
