Wow thanks for the great advice so far!
I have found with the different sport activities that I have done over the years that there is an un-written set of rules to follow for common courtesy to your fellow participants.....and yes I would like to start out on the right foot , so thanks again for the heads up on the "do's and don'ts"

Every single reply so far has giving me a head start in perparing for the big day in Feb of 04 when I start test and tune at my local track. This is where I will apply the suggestion that you guys are giving me now, because I want to be as relaxed as possible for the Vegas at the Strip meet im March of 04.

I will be printing out this thread for myself so that I can read it daily for the next couple of months, and make the suggestions given, become 2nd nature to me before hitting the track.

Thanks for the help guys, I knew I could count on you.....

Happy Thanksgiving!
