If it's your first time on the track, you're probably good with the brake bleed, making sure there's plenty of pads, and checking/topping fluids. If there's less than a year on your oil, I'd change it after, not before.

One thing you might consider though, since it's a pain if it happens during event, is slap some foil tape over the wheel weights to keep them in place in case the adhesive gets soft when the brakes are hot-- though I didn't have that problem until I started using track pads.

Mostly, just go out and have fun-- more than likely you will be at 11/10ths before the car is even at 7/10ths.

PS: What venue you hitting? My Chicago area(ish) event plans include Grattan and Road America in mid to late September.
