Tried autocross, while it was fun, it was big waste of time. I spent 1.5 hour to go there, 2.5 hours of seating and 1.5 hour drive back for 7 minutes of seat time. I don't want to do that again. I can spend money but not time.

I don't want to make car faster, that was my whole point. I want to make myself a better driver with lower risk (that's why I am looking at low grip but consistent tires). I want to keep limits low and approachable, so that I don't chase mods, as once I put grippy 200rw tire, I would need brakes and then I would need track oriented coilovers, oil cooling and then reliability issues as I am pushing car way above it's limit.
