    Make sure the car is road worthy, tie downs intact, all lug nuts, no loose items in car (take them out when you get there), no leaks, etc. Walk the track!!!!! Talk to others, be ready to learn! Remember it is fun! Everyone is nice and willing to help.

    Like everybody else said, just take it easy and don't get too nervous. Keep your head clear and walk the course as much as you can.

    The other thing they'll tell you is look as far ahead as possible. You'll get lost if you're only looking at what's immediately in front of you.

    I'll be bringing the Discustang out and hustling it around the cones for the first time (just sold my Miata, big difference ). Will see ya at the event on the 16th hopefully.
