Would a BMW 530i be any good for a track car?

Hi guys.
I've got the chance to buy a BMW 530i cheap and was wondering if it would make a good base for a track car or would it be too sluggish. Obviously i would strip it all out and modify it for the track, but i have my doubts as to its suitably. What does everyone think?

Thanks guys, cheers for the advice. I think the analogy of driving an oil tanker round a boating lake is probably what i suspected, would be hilarious fun but very frustrating especially after the scooby. I think I'll give it a miss and let it go to banger track as i know for sure it would be good at the. Lol.
What reasonable priced cars would you recommend? The Renault sport looks good value but it's a Renault and the m3 seems popular but again heavy.
