[Joe Bob]

Take everything out of the car. Have good brake pads, fresh fluid. Pull the fuse on the horn and wipers......nothing screams wanker (or frustrates you) when the horn or the wipers go off on tight turns. Use the tires that you use on the street.

Check the battery tie down, pull the spare.....check tire pressures. Bring a cheap IR temp gun to read tire temps, each side and middle. Adjust pressures so that temps are flat across the 3 readings.

Read the AX book that Sammy suggested.

Be smooth.....watch the others and use the offered instructors. Time others in each stretch and see who is faster and why......mid. rear, front engine rides enter and exit turns in different locations as do, front and rear wheel drive rides.

WALK the track. Listen to the guy that set it up. He usually set it so that he can kick YOUR ass. Don't discount 914s or the hairdresser cars.
