How cold you do expect it to be? I've riden the track & even raced in 40* weather. No big deal, just dress for the occasion, that's all.
Smiley gave some great advice though... Not much I can add to his post. Just take your time & let EVERYTHING come up to temp, from the track to your suspension to your own body... your engine isn't the only thing that performs better when warm.
Tip - If it's cold enough that your body is cold, throw a sweatshirt on over your leathers (very helpful if your leathers are too snug for layers underneath)... if your hands are cold, grab a pair of rubber gloves & put those on under (or over) your regular gloves... helps seal out the wind.
PS - not sure if you've ever attended an all women's track day before, but I hope it's nothing like the all women's TD that they run up in NH. If so, good luck. My friend Jane said it was the crappiest thing ever. All group hugs & group pictures & group gift bags... Sunshine & buttercups, hardly any track time at all. Luckily I can pretty much guarantee that this even won't be run by the same people as the one she went to. They're just a local organization.
