Default Taking MSF BRC Tomorrow... Suggestions/tips?

I'm taking the MSF BRC tomorrow for a 2 day course. I just went out and bought an Alpinestar Textile version of the RC1, A Cheap Seven-Zero-Seven Helmet, and a pair of Icon Gloves. Thats all I had money for today, tonight I get paid, so I will be getting a pair of riding boots, pants and sometime down the road I am going to buy a nicer helmet when funds are more available (and a leather jacket, went with the textile with armour for now because of funds and heat!) So, I think I've been taking the right steps...

Any suggestions/tips on the BRC course?

Turn your head.

No, really turn it.

Look where you want to go.

Ok, so just got done with the first day! It was cool. A lot easier than I thought. I've never been on a motorcycle other than a dirtbike once or twice...but I had the throttle/clutch down from ATVs my whole life and was used to the gear pattern. Tomorrow is my last day and it should be another good one I hope!

Also, I was answering questions that the instructor was asking before we even opened the MSF manual, because of this site! I've been reading a lot on here and knew to turn my head and a bunch of other things, so I felt like I had a slight step ahead.
