Save your money on building the car and just go to the track, get instruction and practice, practice, practice. You will be surprised at what that will do in achieving your goal.

When I started off I always wished I had less power and so the turns wouldn't come up as fast and there was more time to think. I feel somewhat bad for the newer muscle car owners coming to the track who have it even worse.
Building a race car is always expensive, buying a race car that has already been built is always the cheapest. Two 370z for sale on racingjunk.com now, either will be at least competitive one would destroy 911s and comes with all the big ticket spare parts.
