Track Day Rain Tire Recommendation

I am headed to Barber this weekend for a PCA event. Lots of rain forecasted for Saturday. I will have two sets of wheels tires with me:

1. 1 year old set of RE71Rs that have a little less than half the tread left.
2. 1 year old set of R888Rs that have lots of tread left - only one track day of wear.

Which set should i attempt to run in the rain on Saturday?

Fortunately, Sunday is scheduled to be dry and sunny

Whichever tire has the most tread void (meaning grooves to funnel water out of the tire).
