Trackday preparation

Hi all,

I have never attended a trackday event ever so pls pardon the newbie questions. I'm seriously thinking of taking my bone stock MC for a trackday session and would like to know if there are some minimum mods that I have to make to ensure a reliable run over a 2 day period. I have heard that upgrades to the braking system (steel hoses, possibly big brake kit) must be made cos the stock system overheats in 2-3 laps. I'm still running the stock contis and I'm not sure if those would be suitable for track work.

Do I need to do a full fluid change (engine oil, brake, transmission, diff) before and/or after the event?

I'm also worried that the car will develop a whole lot of squeaks and rattles after 2 days of intensive driving...

Any input much appreciated! Thanks!
