Default Drag Radials and no sub frame connectors
do you think I'll be cool for just one day at the track? I've heard that it's kinda bad. Would you reccomend just waiting till I get the sfc's?

you will be fine for one day at the track, but if you plan on going a lot get the sub frames.

Might wanna think about some upper and lower controls arms as well if you don't already have them.

yes and yes, you'll be fine and you can rent slicks.

at some tracks anyways. but for the cost, just find a set of cheap cheater slicks and mount them on a set of stock wheels.

w/ in 2 weeks you should be able to find a set of cheaters in your size on a set of wheels for about $100 (fairly worn) to $250 (more than 1/2 tread left)

I have never seen a track that rents slicks. I imagine that not very many do it though
