Default Prepping for running my at hard?

So my bosses and I are going to the Mid-America Ford meet up this month. Gary is taking his 70 Boss 302, his son is taking a 2012 Boss 302 and I've been planning to ride shotgun. I think I changed my mind and want to drive my car. Other than the obvious (plugs, oil (I used Mobil 1 full synthetic (5W-30) and Fram filter last go around, about 3 weeks to a month ago, but I'll change it again before ******* it all the way to Tulsa and while there), any suspicious vacuum lines, fuel filter, air filter, PCV (side note, where is it on these motors? Never looked), may drain the radiator and flush it, considering I just bought the car and who knows when it was done.

I was told pinion bushings I think they are, are real easy, and cheap, and that they are bound to be worn. My tires are good. Suspension is good. Drives straight as an arrow right now.

The car was kept pretty well, only has 124,700 miles on it. Stock everything except flowmasters.

I miss anything needing to do? I don't know the last time anything was done since j just got it, so hit me with ANYTHING I may need to do if you have. Need better minds than mine.

If you just changed the oil and the cars riding ok, I wouldn't mess with anything.
