Easy question
If I have my car alligned really well, tracks perfectly straight, steering is perfectly straight, tires are brand new etc...Then I take it to the track where the left front takes most of the abuse, and when I am done the steering is off a bit. Meaning, I have to now correct steer a bit to the LEFT to make it go in a straight line...Is my allignment off a bit from racing it so hard, or is it just that the left front has been worn more than the others ?? Assume new 17" tires and 2 days of hard tack driving.

could be all of those
It could be you have worn the inside edges of your tires to the point it tracks differently. How many miles on the car? It could be if you had very few miles on the before you went to the track and the track induced forces (.8-1.5g) created a condition your car had not seen before and it is simply settling into a new "set-up" literally aligning, or in your case (re)aligning everything from the springs to the gas tank to the way the chassis sits on the frame. It will likely change again before it's done.

Interesting, thanks Michael...

I am assuming you have checked and all the front end fasteners are tight?
