Biggest mistake is cold tires.......and be midful of the idiots around you that aren't heeding the same message. I can't tell you how many people I have seen over the years put their car into the wall on a warm-up lap because they were driving too hard on cold tires right out of the pit.

Yea, watch out for the other cars for the first few laps on each session. Some nut will try to push it hard before his tires are warmed up. And does some grass triming, or custom body work.
