+1, I would recommend using the same pads (and rotors!) on both axles if possible.

According to the graphs on this page, you should be fine driving to the track on W4s, maybe with some extra caution, especially the first dozen of braking after the putting them in. This page specifically says "Effective for road racing, rally racing, and occasional street use".

If you haven't used these pads before, you might consider bedding them in first, although I'm not an expert on that matter.
