Going to the track for the first time

K so leave on last yellow, avoid water if possible, and start off with a soft launch and increase rpm until I find the happy spot. Anyone know if I need a locking dipstick? I am going to Infineon Raceway in Sonoma. I'm going up with tools, a holley jet kit, spring kit, pump cams, and distributor weights to hopefully try out. Right now I have the step up from the factory pink cam with the yellow spring and a silver and blue spring in the distributor. Helmet shows up tomorrow.
