+2 learning the hard way really sucks but Now my -24 point driving record and not having insurance bc its wayyyyyy to much and the ( I added up In the past 2 years) I spend 9,400 bucks in tickets and that b.s ... I really learned the hard way, and havent got a ticket in almost 6months..
A bit slow on the learning curve huh solo??? lol how did you get -24?! Isn't the max they can take off like 6?
It's not really like that, everyone was a beginner once. The only way to get better is to get out there and do it as much as you can.
Plan on 20 to 45 bucks per event depending upon where, when, with whom, and depending upon how many runs you get (i.e. less cars allowed = more runs but a higher entry fee.)
Also consider the cost of tires, FWD cars will have a hay day with this, street tires wont hold up very well in an auto cross situation, this is sure to take 5k miles off of a regular set of street tires.
I have 2 full sets spairs in case something happens.
I am now ... ug.... 50... When I was 15 my parents were autocrossers that insisted that before they would allow me to drive on the street that I had to perform to their satisfaction at an autocross school. I have been autocrossing every since. My daughter autocrossed before she could drive on the street, and I think every kid should go through autocross training BEFORE driving on the street. It makes them a better driver on the street and makes them less agressive street drivers, because they get a certain respect for the limits and they get their jollies out on the track.
I HIGHLY recommend taking him to an autocross or better yet an autocross school. Check out :

Negative camber in the alignment and/or a car that doesn't understeer due to properly tuned suspension and/or a driver who can drive around it... fixes this supposed problem.
