1./ Letting a lit cigarette fall out of your mouth and into you lap.
2./ Spilling your beer.

Make sure you wire up the flux capacitor correctly and hit the cable suspended from the town hall belltower PRECISELY when the lightening strikes.....

Oh yeah and buy a copy of the 1956 sports almanac for me!

At 130 mph tension will start to build on your johnson rods. Make sure your radiator hoses are properly torqued down to factory specs....

At those speeds, the only thing you should have to worry about is the braking zone for the next turn ... You should be at a track.

Lay down a towel over your seats and make sure you have clean underwear at home!

wow........someone beat me to it.
seriously, it's very easy to make a mistake at those speeds even on a track. crosswinds, roadkill, cops, traffic can really bring the day to an end, but the things that will be the worst you can't prepare for.
be safe and always wear a condom
