First track event, any pointers?

I have my first road course track event this weekend at Eagles Canyon in Texas. I was wondering if any of you could have any pointers for me. I am just running stock breaks and tires for this fist event and realize that I will definitely be buying new ones for the next one. I am sure I will have many questions after this event as well.

Main questions I can think of right now:
o What tire pressure (cold) should I go with front and rear?
o Is it worth it to put in the higher octane (101+)? Are there any possible problems with possibly mixing a 93 octane that's in the tank with a much higher octane?
o What are the best/most popular break pads out there for both track and street?
o Any suggestions on extra things to bring out to the track?
