Hydrate yourself before the event and get a good night's sleep the night before. Keep yourself hydrated during the day.

Re-torque your wheel nuts to factory specs, and inflate your tires to the specs listed in your Owner's Manual. You may adjust the tire pressures during the day based on your instructor's advice.
