| Fresh blinker fluid goes a long way. Also try Neon lights, lightning straps, and those fancy light up windshield washer jets. While you are at it, try learning to use some punctuation. ......,,,,,,!!!!????

Street racing is dangerous (both to you and others), immature, and an ineffective way to learn to drive.
The BMW club, and this chapter in particular, run a wide variety of events specifically designed to teach high performance driving. These include Advanced Driving Skills Schools, Street Survival (ADSS targeted at young drivers), Autocross, High Performance Driving Education ("Driving School"), Club Racing School, and Club Racing. See the event descriptions on the chapter's website. All of these events include instruction (except Club Racing, which requires previous instruction). All these events happen off the street, with appropriate safety procedures and equipment. All are excellent ways to learn to drive your car well.
Modifying your car for higher performance would be one of the last things that you should do, after you've developed some high-performance skill. As you progress, you might start modifications, such as safety (harnesses, roll bar/cage, HANS) and reliability (water pump, radiator, engine/tranny mounts, etc.), then later brakes (higher temp pads and fluid) and tires, and eventually suspension (additional camber, adjusted toe, possibly different springs, dampers, and ride height). When you're getting all you can out of your car and are driving well, you might (or might not) consider increased power, which is almost certainly reduce the reliability and longevity of your motor somewhat.
You already drive well, right? If you think that, then you probably don't. I strongly urge you to stop street racing and start really learning to drive. Come to some events and watch if you aren't sure it's for you.
After 10 years of driving schools and well over 100 track days, I now realize how mediocre I drive compared to top-level drivers. I'm a Driving School instructor, and I help train other instructors. You just haven't experienced really good car control, vision, balance, and advanced techniques (such as heel-and-toe downshifting, trail braking, throttle steering).
Still think you're a hot shoe? Go to the autocross and compete against similar cars. Be prepared to be humbled. Come to an autocross or driving school and prove it.

My Spanish is almost nonexistent, but I see autocross, "SoloX", and some mention of track events in the forum.
