If you can scrounge together the $$$, you can pick up a used trailer for $2-300, and a trailer hitch for almost any car for less than $100. Its a worthwhile investment.

My step-dad has a trailer that I can borrow. I'd just have to either use his truck, or get a hitch installed on my Santa Fe. Either option is doable. I'm also going to check with some local riders about maybe just bumming a ride. I'm sure they do some group trackdays once in a while.

There's a local place that does hitches pretty cheaply, and they do good work.

My primary concern with someone riding to and from the track is the rider being too exhausted to safely get home.

I don't recommend the ride to the track day thing. Just so much more piece of mind knowing that your bike is ready before you get to the track, and you have everything you need going there.

THAT. Plus it's harder than you would think to adjust from spending a day holding the throttle WFO and then heading home with oncoming traffic and speed limits. Your brain will take some time to adjust between the 2...it's just dangerous to try and do it too quickly, even if you're a smart, experienced rider.

Take water, levers and a small gas tank, I rode to my last track day, it isn't a big deal

Trade the Sante Fe in for an S-10.
You need a gas can with fuel at a min, plus water, food, tire pressure guage and some basic tools.
