just take a deep breath and realize that racing is like anything else you can learn in life. it is a step by step process.
to get yourself started, decide on a reasonable goal. something that makes sense for the limitation of the car and your budget.
the absolute most important thing to keep in mind if you are interested in racing is that it is not about speed, it is about time.
most of what you can do at the beginning to reduce time are increasing traction and picking rear gears that take advantage of the power and power band of the car.
once you get the car, get to a track ASAP and find out what you are working with. give the car a good tune up and check everything over to make sure it is all working good.
