If you want to become a "pro" and need to build a name for yourself, get into an already established series. NASA and SCCA have classes that you can get into for not a lot of money. AI/CMC is a NASA series in Camaros and Mustangs that can get you used to wheel to wheel racing and start building your experience for cheap.

Get into a class and PRACTICE with wheel to wheel and see if you can hack it. Dominating an already existing sanctioned racing series will be a HUGE step towards being recognized for professional driving.

Many have the opportunity to become professional drivers, most have been racing sine they were kids in carts as mentioned above and many aren't limited to a 40k budget to do it.

Best thing would be to start lapping days and have FUN rather than worrying about being a "pro."
