Bah, how old are you? Young I assume? With $1000 I would do 2 HPDE track days with insurance. Best way to make your car faster is driver skill. I wish I started when I was younger.

You will change cars many times in a lifetime. Driving skill stays with you forever.

Seriously underestimating the cost of HPDE lol...

Brake pads, fluid, oil cooler, event costs + insurance, hotel (maybe), food...**** is usually almost $1000 every time I go.

AutoX would be significantly more realistic for a noob.

I agree . If you go to the track you will see the mods people do are 180 from what the sema/show people do.

Tires, wheels, cooling, brakes, suspension, weight.
