East Coast Honda Challenge+ME= He1l yeah!

My main goal right now is to join ECHC after I get my racing licence. I have been to a HPDE through NASA but still in novice. So my questions are:

1. is it really feasible to race a four door (I know there is a civic wagon)
2. will I need tons of chasis reinforcement?
3. what are suggestions on taking the right track to w2w racing

Since I still have a lot of learning to do most of my lurking on Honda Tech has been strictly research and will remain that way. Just wanted to get any and all suggestions for my plans.

I have a 3 yr plan:
-keep going to HPDEs and progress as a driver
-enter racing school and get licenced
-build the civic continuously
safety
brakes
suspension
rubber
cooling
power
-then finally w2w
-hopefully sponsership

I am now seeing what DSC and Hippo are going through. It is one he1l of a build up process and I have support from the wife who excited that she will get track time in the 240 while I am in the civic.
Comments and suggestions are welcome. ::hoping to not have to put on flame retardant suit::
