Default Advice Please: Stock 370Z, Local Track Day

So I discovered a local track has an event this weekend (see below). Essentially you get instructed driving lessons on the track. I have two questions perhaps some of you guys can weigh in on.

First, I have 2,100mi on my car. Too soon for a little track fun or should I be ok?

Second, I don't have an oil cooler. I assume I can still enjoy the day and perhaps just call it quits every once in a while if the temps are climbing. It's said to be 4 30min sessions, but honestly the day is about driving the way you want...no timing or racing, just learning and instruction. I assume I can work around oil temp issues and drive accordingly. Any thoughts?

For anyone in the Chicago area, the event is TrackDaze (www.trackdaze.com) at the Autobahn race track in Joliet. Registration is $200 for one day and $325 for both Sat and Sun (5/30 and 5/31). If you enter in the novice category, they include a free instructor in the car with you. The day also includes two didactic sessions on high performance driving. I've signed up for the Sunday session.
