A lot of the panic around track day usage and wear is overhyped.
There are of course examples of people taking their brand new GT3 or 458 Speciale to the track and destroying the rotors in a single weekend, but there isn't that much oxidative wear unless you are on a low speed track with minimal cooling and just absolutely hammering (overusing) the brakes.
If you are doing a lot of track work, I would try some improved ducting and track CCB pads (Pagid RSC-1) before going to more extreme options. At the very worst, you burn up a set of CCB rotors and then can either opt for the M2C iron rotors or a full on AP setup.
Replacement rotors aren't as expensive as people make them out to be. I have a set of brand new CCB rotors and pads that I am selling and it was not a 5 figure amount to acquire them (nor am I asking a 5 figure amount). The extended service life in normal or aggressive street use mostly offset the higher cost of entry.
If you're tracking every weekend or something, maybe CCB is not the best, but otherwise just run them and don't worry.
