OEM Sport Brakes vs XP8 vs XP10

Is it reasonable to swap out the OEM sport pads for Carbotech XP8s in the front only , leaving the OEMs on the rear the day before a track day?

Is it reasonable to swap out the OEM sport pads for Carbotech XP8s in the front only, leaving the OEMs on the rear the day before a track day? Then after the track day, pop the OEM pads in again? Any light hand sanding of the rotor required during the swaps? I'd like to avoid buying rear pads for just a few track days if possible.
