Yeah like others said, buy a car and hit the track. Your near stock GT will make for a good car to get your feet wet. Save your money for the 4 Ts: Tools, Tires, Truck & Trailer.
I was in a similar spot a while back. I was a put off my 2015 base GT after driving it during the winter. You *really* feel that extra weight on the ice or in the slush. People on this forum said (and my research confirmed) that the Ecoboost required some additional enduro work for track with extra power which narrowed the power/weight gap a little but in the end 9/10 people would choose a bit more power (the V8) over a bit more lightness. One guy, I forget his name, prepped a pretty hardcore Ecoboost, gave up and bought a GT350 instead.
If you want light, build an Exocet.
