Hi Matt
U really need to see how cold it is on the day, if there is a frost on the ground u may need to run on inters to start with 20 mm on the front and 5 in at the back. If it's below 3 degrees and windy u may not get to slicks as the track won't warm up. But use Saturday to test set ups. Don't be rushing to go to slicks to early our slicks are very hard and won't give much grip in the extreme cold.
It's always a good thing to start with more grip than u need on Saturday it builds confidence and u can very slowly take it away a session at a time. Keep a close eye on his revs lap times and the weather/ track conditions. Also you may need 1-2 teeth more than normal.
Have fun and make sure your driver has plenty of layers on
