Check your tyres before you go! I (well, Jim I think it was) spotted a nail in my tyre after the first session at Cadwell!! Must have been in there ages, and definitely through the 100mph+ first track session
I then had to have the rear replaced on track, so ran with a Dunlop GP Racer on the back and Michelin Pilot Road on the front. I was paranoid about the mismatch for a couple of sessions afterwards.
Otherwsie, basic stuff, make sure things are in decent working order and you ave enough oil etc.
