Wow, those are fast times.
My first day (6hrs during scca school) I was still running >1:20's so that's like doing 5 track days.. So yeah, please all the new guys, caution OVER pride. Being a smooth driver is what makes you fast and motorsports is one of those hobbies, like golf, that you can do until you're 90 years old.. so don't rush anything!

What's great is the actual pace that the instructors will introduce you to the sport will make you feel silly for being nervous the night/week before your first event!
The 1st novice session looks like parade laps.. but by the end of the day you know more about your car than the XX amount of time you've owned it on the street.
It's a beautiful thing.

Show up early, unpack/relax.
Attend drivers meeting.
Final check of car.
Probably 20min run groups an hour (or so) apart.
Usually a longer lunch period.
The rest of the time you relax/BS/etc.
No working like you have to do in autox'ing.
Partly why it's more $$, but worth it IMO.

May change so you'll get the latest when you go to the track that morning.
