Spending that 10k on proper suspension or even a driving school (which he hasn't done either) would yield MUCH better results.

I have a dedicated race car, and I track a TON, and a $400 cam in my LS would yield 50+whp, yet I'm on the stock cam... money better spent.
He has already spent 10k in suspension

If it makes him happier I don't see why it's a bad thing. Having an S65 that is maxed out is awesome regardless of the cost. No one doubts that an E9X is most the best track car to begin with, however, with dedicated owners people are doing great things with them. Witness dogbone and his supercharged E90.
