If I were going to track a Z3, definately would do something more than stock (and it may even be required, depending on your club)

Just get a 125 cc shifter kart and use the street car to tow it.

Karts are kool..  I rented one for an autocross event. Yaa hoo.. is all I say..  But I'd rather drive my Miata then have to buy a complete clothing and head gear. Not to menton the cost of upkeep on the Kart.

I agree, cars are great for autocross.  But for racing, you can't beat karts in bang for the buck.  They accelerate/corner/brake way better than any street car, and you can easily get into the sport for less than $5,000.  When you roll your street car or another racer plows into the back of it, that $5,000 will seem pretty cheap.
