Need some help/advice

I'm one to admit I don't know a whole lot about cars. I am in the process of learning about rwd vs. fwd, manual vs. automatic, drifting and so on and so forth.

My dad bought me a 2007 Corolla S (Automatic) for my birthday back in September, I really didn't have a say in the matter but hey it's a free car right? Well I just recently got myself all excited about learning stick shift and what makes cars lose and regain control (ie drifting if I'm understanding it correctly). But I have no job and very little money so buying even a junker is out of the question.

My point is I'm looking to have as much fun as is safely and cheaply possible in my car, I realize this is alot to ask but if anyone knows any way I would appreciate some sharing of the knoweledge.

find a group that does autocross/autox near you, and get involved. it's safe, it's fun, and there's a stock class.
