Im thinking as/3 fronts would offset the grip with RA1 in the back. Am i tottaly wrong here?
Thanks

Completely incompatible tires. Your car would push like a pig all day.

Maybe choose some middle ground and mount RE71R on all 4 corners. This is a fast tire that works street or track. Almost as fast as RA-1 but works better on stock suspension. You will still toast the outer shoulders but a better fit than RA-1 tires.
