Will my next event be a waste of time?

Hey!
I have done a few autocross events on a completely stock car. The car has Prius tires on it with 26K miles on them. It was a bit of a challenge autocrossing with reduced grip but I had a ton of fun power sliding and still managed decent times. For the most part I landed in the middle of the pack with my personal times.


Now I turbocharged the car. It put down 290 wheel hp on pump gas.
I am registered for an event later this month but I am not sure that I will be able to upgrade brakes and get new wheels and tires by then. The car definitely has traction issues now. If the car is not going straight or with any steering wheel input, I can roast the tires in third gear.
Should I even bother attending the next event? I suppose I can baby it around the track and not utilize all the power. What would you do?
Thanks!
