I would say stick to this advise, you will not regret it, learn the car handling characteristics, you don't need to upgrade until you get more seat time in track. Last track day I went in my DD (stock charger SRT), there was a Mclaren, which naturally should smoke me, but the novice driver in it couldn't have better times than me, even Toyobaru twins that has good drivers was faster than him, and our track isn't crowded, so we can get some hot laps.

You have a choice of becoming better driver first, or make your car hard to drive at your level.

Search for Lift-off oversteer, and you will know why you should avoid a higher stance at back side (specially without aero). It got my attention as I just experienced it before two days
