Both of these oils have superior HTHS (High Temperature High Shear) ratings to other "synthetics" and will work well for a track day.
Honestly, I would drain and fill the oil (you can retain the filter) soon after your track day event.
If you have a Red Line dealer, I would opt for Red Line 5W-30 or 10W-30. It's the bomb (WAY better than RP), but pricey.

You feel that sticking to Xw30 is ok when running at the high temps?
I'm pretty sure we don't get Syntec here but will look for the Mobile...
