You can have aspirations of wheel-to-wheel competition. That's fine. But right now your goal needs to be getting on track to learn and gain experience. That means doing HPDEs as you can afford them, regardless of whether or not you know you will want more. Of course you'll want more! And like everyone else you'll have to wait until you can afford to have it.
What you're doing right now is saying, "until I can afford to go after wheel-to-wheel competition I'm going to stay completely off track. I'm not even going to bother with getting an HPDE or two under my belt, however infrequently, so I can start gaining experience NOW. Even though I understand this experience will likely help me shape my ultimate goals for the future, which most likely include some form of wheel-to-wheel competition, I still choose to postpone all track activity until I am able to go after it all at once."
That's unrealistic and foolish, IMO.
