I'm taking my car to Thunderhill for the first time in March. I've done track days in the past with my SRT-4, but this my first time out with a RWD car.

Do you have any tips for a first timer? I'm doing the driving school with NCRC, so I was thinking that I should leave all the nannies on this time around. I heard that you're not supposed to use the p-brake after running the car hard. Any other advice like that? Is there an ideal tire pressure I should shoot for? Is it worth it to fill up on a higher octance than 91? My car is completely stock.

Thanks in advance
