I'd still buy the KDW2's I mean come on Joe, how often do you make it to the track to race people? I think you'd be better off with a stickier tire that will let you drive like you do on the road moreso than one suited for a dual purpose.
I definitely agree with everyone when they are telling you that if you are really gonna spend some time at the track you should just buy drag radials for the front. two cheap rims and two decent tires to go along with your summer and winter sets would probably even be more cost efficient in the long run (especially if you add in the gentleman's wagers at the track you can take advantage of with better tires) if you really use them.
I still find it hard to believe you will be/are spending so much time at the track racing

Look at page 19 here to see the treat patterns available on the Hoosiers. They have some details specs and most of the DOT ratings should be street legal (but I guess that also depends on where you live).
The BFG T/A Radial has a very similar treat pattern to the KDW2 with a more flexible sidewall and more shallow treading.
They'll suck in the rain and you'll get stuck in the snow, but if you get them now and use them like you should, don't expect them to last til winter Just realize this and please don't be an idiot on public roads with them. Abusing them in turns will turn them in to slicks (destroy them) in no time
