1st time at track next Wednesday - need advice

What tthey all said... I'd leave the slicks at home - you'll have more to worry about than all the extra safety stuff they'll be looking for if you arrive with them. A tech guy who sees a well built car with slicks and a Dana will know there's something there. Take it slow - I routinely take a "light lap" when I go - I don't go that often these days but even when i was there fairly regularly I'd take an easy first run to get back in the swing of things. Watch the track guys. FOLLOW DIRECTIONS. Make sure the window is up all the way and if you have one the visor is down. Note where the staging lights are - they are not near the tree. The ET is the last thing you need to worry about. Worse comes to worse - tell everyone that asks that you didn't run slicks and it spun...lol.
