THANKS!
I've driven a F430 and a Gallardo on the track mulitple times. I very strongly suspect there will be an instructor with you in the car at all times showing you technique, but here's what I think is most important for someone who is less experienced:

1. Brake early, hard, and in a straight line.

2. Accelerate in a straight line.

3. Be smooth with all your inputs.

Try not to race the guy in front of you or try to "be quick." Just take it at your own pace.
