I've been tracking my cars for 8 years now, time flies. You have no idea what it's like to drive on a track until you do it, I realized that on day 1. No amount of high speed street driving will prepare you for it. Straight line street racing, roll racing etc. do nothing for circuit track skills, probably have a negative effect.
The first thing for beginners is learning track rules and etiquette--track entry/exit, flags, passing, what to do/not do when you lose control, not driving like an a-hole, etc. Next come skills like understanding the line, brake zones, car control, etc.
Something I feel like saying, but no reflection on the OP...
Every time I see someone on the street or freeway weaving dangerously through traffic in a high powered car I know one thing is 99% certain, they have not learned to drive on a track but they believe that if they tried it they'd be great.
