Do I need to do anything other than register to participate in this event? Do I need to be a member of anything, or something like that? This is going to be my first event and I'd just like to be prepared.
Just looking for some input on what to expect, any tips you guys may have, anything that can help me at all. I plan on in the running novice street tire class. When I register I'm just gonna tell the guy that this is my first time and if anyone here can help me out, preferably with the same car. Hopefully I'll find someone knowledgable that I can tag along with and get alot of help from.
The only upgrades I'm really doing to the car are: Mopar XXtra high rate springs, R/T struts, Falken rubber, 52mm throttle body, Dynomax muffler, Iceman intake, firm motor mounts, solid bobble strut. Not sure if I'll have my sway bars put on intime, the struts/springs are still a maybe. I might endup going out there with stock suspension

Go out there with stock suspension!!!
It might be counterintuitive to you, but there's nothing "wrong" with the stock Neon suspension, it can autocross quite well. For a novice driver, it will be FAR more forgiving than a really stiff suspension. As a bonus, there's nothing to adjust on it, so you don't have to worry about "do I have the swaybars adjusted properly" and things like that. You just go drive the car... which is exactly what you need to be doing at this point.
Lots and lots of info on the FAST site:

Answers to most of your questions, like "do I need to be a member"?

Spend some time reading what's on that site.
