(front splitter, rear blade spoiler, splash guards, window tint, black bowties, etc.)

Why not compare your V6 RS for the attributes where it's not giving away as much? And maybe work on those.
Seems to me that a V6 RS coupe would be a decent place to start running at road courses with. Sure, the SS cars will pull you going down the longer straights, but if you put only a little work into your RS's suspension/wheels/tires/brakes they won't be shaking you off their bumpers through the twisty sections. And you'll end up being a more skilled driver for when you do get your SS. Don't underestimate the value of this.
Autointerests and other HPDE groups run at Mid-Ohio, which can't be all that far away from you.
