Default RA-1's as rain tires?

Looks like rain this weekend... so I need to decide which wheels/tires to use at the track. Since I'm driving the car there, I'll be stuck with whatever I leave home with on the car.

My RA-1s began as full tread and only have 5 track days on them so they still have plenty of tread depth. Other choice is to use my street tires -- Cooper Zeon 2XS... great all around performance street tire.

I love the RA-1s, but I've never driven them at the limit in the wet. Are they a decently grippy, predictable rain tire?
