My advice would be to take the car completely as is, and upgrade as necessary as you gain track experience. Your extra $$$ would be better spent on more track time.

Helmet is mandatory, but many track day orgs provide rentals to people that don't have them.
^This.

Did my first 3 track days in completely stock form. Only thing I brought was a helmet, a folding chair and water. Borrowed someone's torque wrench during that time, eventually bought mine.
