If you're a track newbie, why switch tires? The stock tires hold up pretty decently and have great grip for street tires. I think, and I've heard it said by others, that you learn a lot more about proper car control without the crutch of ultra-sticky tires. They prevent you from exploring the limits from seeing your mistakes as easily. Just a thought...

One other benefit: track tires are just going to cause more brake issues, fuel starvation issues, etc., which isn't much fun...
