I would try to stay above half-full on the gas tank at all times.

Being the fastest car at a track day or HPDE isn't worth much. Enjoying yourself and learning about your car and high performance driving is the best fun you can have with your clothes on

Great advice. Don't be above listening to your instructor and have fun!

Hand torque your wheel nuts (lug nuts).
Head up and look ahead - as mentioned above.
Stay in Sport mode.
Concentrate on the line and being smooth.
Check your fluids and air pressure before and periodically during.
Keep the gas tank over half full - depending on which way you're running.

Take your time, enjoy yourself and keep it shiny side up !
