If this is your first track day, are you having to do any "1st track day newbie class" thing?

If so, then id just check on all your fluids and call it good. When I did my 1st track day as a newbie, the 1st 2 sessions we didn't get over 60 mph. The 3rd and 4th session we were able to be without an instructor and go ham. Tbh, while you will go over 60mph, you won't be going balls to the wall and won't be killing that factor brake fluid. So for your first track day, I dont really see a point to do alot of stuff to the car. BUT, if you were to do ANYTHING, id recommend changing out the brake fluid to a quality high temp fluid (not GM stuff). This way, after your first track day, you will be able to tell if its something you want to go regularly or not.

Past that, if you DO want to just go all out on ur track day, then id do brake fluid, oil change, diff fluid change and a track alignment. also, quality tires. Leave the ps4s and "daily driver" tires at home. if u have sc3 tires, id recommend your tire pressure to be between 28-30 warm.
