The basic stuff. You cannot just practice in a parking lot and if you do, you could be fined and jailed (street racing) PLUS you make it more difficult for your local region to host autocrosses and find more lots.
But as Sean said you can do test & tune days although I don't recommend it for a 1st timer. For a T&T you should have some basic knowledge of autocrossing and your car settings. A T&T is basically for people who haven't touched their car or did mods over the winter and need to get the car back on track. As a newbie you might be overwhelmed and hold up the line OR worse get lost on track and hold up the event.
