I wouldn't be having fun peeling around the track if I was worrying about little rock chips.

In general I agree with this advice - I've gotten more rock chips from daily driving compared to what happens at track days. I've never noticed a single rock chip after a track day.
But I also agree with Glen e that the Track Wrap is not a bad idea if you're worried about it. If nothing else, it will make the rubber cleanup afterwards a lot easier. You may not get rock chips during a track day, but it's guaranteed your car will be covered with rubber bits.
