Yes, choose your contact patch carefully based on your goals.
Competing for a championship, you want the best grip possible regardless of cost. That means a fresh set of R7s every track weekend in a DOT-R class at $1600. If you are running in a 200tw TT class you can have just as much fun and save a lot of cash with RE-71R. They will be good for 4-5 weekends and a set is around $900 installed.
Just DEs for kicks and grins? RS-3, AD-08, Direzza SS IIs, RE-11. All of these tires are viable track rubber that will hold up for 6-10 Track weekends depending on the driver and cost less than $900. A DE is non-competitive so forget chasing those GT3 Cup cars in your Boxster and just shoe up for fun.
