Go find an early Miata. Put on a set of summer performance tires, and go have fun. You will not likely ever be as fast as the modern cars, but on many tracks you will rarely use your brakes. Just drive it to the track, and drive it home.

Since I own a 85 911 I took it to the track yesterday. Drive up, have fun, drive home. Leave your ego at home, and let the faster cars pass. Most cars on the track had over double my HP. Just 5 cars on track at a time so sometimes it was like a private track day with no other cars in sight.
