Meguires Cleaner Wax and my Porter Cable. I've tried everything and this is the winning ticket. And....it is also a wax. Win-win. Works great on both paint and clear bra. Only in rare instances did I have to use something a little more abrasive.
Agree with Spyerx, a good coat of wax PRIOR to going to the track helps tremendously.

Another vote for Mother's R3. It's aggressive enough to remove the rubber marks without damaging the paint. Quick tip is to follow the directions and let it soak on the rubber marks for a minute. Then the rubber will literally just wipe off like ink on a marker board.
I've also started using temporary clear bra to cover the spots that get the most debris. Easy to apply and then I just peel it off after the weekend. Also great for those who autocross because cones can damage the paint if you hit them just wrong.

Mother's Race Rubber Remover is the bomb. Wash the car, and then spray this stuff on. Wait about 5 minutes and then wipe affected areas again. The hose off. Amazing stuff. I just wish I could buy it in bigger bottles.

There's also an Amsoil product that comes in an aerosol can that works very well on rubber marks. It's called Miracle Wash. It's all I use for this task. It costs around $10 per can.

While we're throwing cheaper alternatives out there, I've used the Mothers R3 and it does work but so does Meguiars D101 which is $15 a gallon and can be diluted to go even further than a gallon. I dilute 5:1 for cleaning up rubber marks and it still works well.
Of all the fancy boutique detailing products I own I think good old simple D101 is my favorite because it can be used for just about anyhting.

But honestly I still stand by cleaner wax and an orbital. This is one instance where I've learned to just move past the least aggressive method first...when i can pick up the PC and a chemical cleaner with wax in it and one step the process instead of cleaning and then going back to wax later...win / win for me. Plus some of that track rubber can be really stubborn and if you're doing anything other than lightly rubbing the surface even with a microfiber towel you're scratching it in the process.
