The best thing to do would be to track your street car while it is stock. Then, if you want to continue getting faster after 5-7 trackdays, buy a slower and cheaper car like a Miata, S2000, or an E30/E36. That will let you push harder and not worry about damaging the car, and you will learn more about driving because you will not have driving aids and power to make up for lack of skill.
PM me if you have any more specific questions. I actually do private coaching but for a beginner the best bet is to do a few days with a local trackday group. Good luck!

Wow great achievements! I am currently looking for e30 and e36s right now for tracking. Need to save up during the Summer first.
