Why yes, that S13 IS familiar.
You need to bring lots of water, healthy snacks, sunscreen, extra tires regardless of grip or drift, extra car fluids, helmet, probably some tools and whatnot. An E-Z-Up or umbrella may help, and a cooler would make you oh-so-happy.
The schedule will be determined by Sam. Usually driver's meeting is around 8:30 am.
If you have the means, I highly recommend going to this event. Sam and the crew at SRT put on great track days.

No. You need wheels and tires mounted, sorry for the confusion. If you're drifting, you need at least one pair of good rear wheels with tires, two or three pair is the advisable amount.
If you are gripping, you probably need a pair just as spares in case you cut a sidewall or have wheelspin issues, which you will have unless you're running a clutch-type diff in good working condition.

cfrost are you going? would like someone to help me out, never drifted a full track before and you tore it up on saturday, so maybe you could give me some tips.

sorry man, I'm gona be instructing a drift clinic in Colorado for CADC, but I'll be at all the other scheduled SRT events to help out if you plan on coming to any.
This track is super fun, I really really wish I could be there. With this track, all you have to be careful of is not pushing too far beyond your limits and only slide the corners you feel comfortable with :D
hope you can make it out!
