Find another club that lets you get more seat time.
4 runs is pretty typical when running with SCCA. Champ tours/nationals only give you 3 runs per day.

Typically the local SCCA regions run test-and-tunes and schools where you can get 40+ runs, and with instructors. You should look into doing as many of those as possible, but still go to the events with 4 runs since you'll get used to adapting more quickly. That's just part of the sport
