Not to sure what is near you. I am from Toledo and we just went up to Waterford Hills race track in Michigan. You could always go to Mid-Ohio, but track days there cost alot ($200+). If I were you I would not do a track day until you have either had instruction or have participated in a year or two of auto-x regularly. We had a auto-x on the race track at Waterford Hills (a couple cones to show proper lines, and slow you down on the straits) and even then there were two accidents. While auto-x may teach you some bad habits for the track (i.e. over driving the car), it gives you invalueable experience and knowledge of the limits of your car. I think that with this you stand a better chance of having to trailer your car home in pieces.
