I only ran my MS6 at Heartland Park, it was great. When I've gone there were a lot of people who showed up and ran novice with me, however more than 50% only did two of the five 20 min sessions, by the end it was me and 2 other cars in novice. I would recommend getting in early ish and parking as closed to the lock gate as possible next to the ticket booth looking place where you'll meet up, that way you can park next to a bay for shade so in between runs you can pop your hood and let some air flow into the engine bay. Kind of obvious but take a basically tool kit and Jack with you, you could always take some extra pads with you. I also changed brake fluid before I've gone. I used a higher water percentage mix when I ran as well. Take a lawn chair and cooler too so you can chill between sessions. The place is great, ride with one of the "pros" before hand, listen to them, and use your first one or two sessions to learn the track. After all that sessions 3-5 push yourself and have a blast.
