Nice work Z Zaniac.

Another thing that may be good to add, is that nobody likes to race with somebody who allways complains when there is a problem with the car or bumping during the race (this is very common with younger drivers). So try to be quiet during the race, and complain afterwards (if you want)... messing up your own race is one thing, messing up everyones race is not appreciated.

Be ready to race when your heat/main is called. Do not make a large change to your car right before your heat/main. Odds are you will run into an issue that will make it take longer, and you will either delay the heat/main or miss it.

If there are people noticeably faster on the track than you, give them a little more of the line and let them pass cleanly. This will make it better for both of you. If you fight to hold him behind you, it will make him push to pass, which may end up in a collision that takes you both out. You would not be expected to pull over to the outside of a turn, just a couple inches to give them enough room to pass on the inside without losing much speed.
