Right now I would say don't worry about where you place. Sit down with a few of the racers there and learn setup from them, while on the track work on learning a good line. Start with trying to stay in the center of the track without crashing. Once you have that down start tightening up the line a little bit. Learning setup takes time and effort. But it is worth it to do so. I've been doing this for over 15 years now and I'm still learning stuff all the time.
