I made up a list of things to check. Some are already mentioned but here it is.

Check your batteries. You will need at least 3 sets, make sure they are charged and good to go!! Check your transmitter batteries also.
Check your tires. Are they secure? Retape them if necessary.
Check your suspension for binding. Are the motor wires hitting the body? King pins free? Disc damper good? T-Plate screws tight?
Check your wheelnuts, but do not overtighten.
Check your bearings. Are they clean and spinning freely?
Check your diff. Is it clean and smooth? Not binding?
Check your screws!! Especially metal-to-metal contacts, and motor mounts.
Check your motor. Check that the wires are securely attached to the board and soldered to the motor.
Check your gears. Are they in good condition, meshed correctly, and appropriate for the track layout?
Check your frequency. Are you on your assigned channel? Tx/Rx match?
Check your transponder. Did you put it in the car?
Check your attitude and sportsmanship. Its supposed to be fun!!  Please also check the post on Pointers on Racer etiquette, and just things to know
