How old? What category, solo, team? Done any enduro's before?

Have fun, first and foremost. Bring a variety of food and drink, just a single flavour or food type gets tiresome after a while. Bring earplugs and a warm sleeping bag. A chain cleaner is a good idea. Be aware of riders around you, thank riders who pull over for you and don't deliberately hold up others.

Just enjoy it and don't take it too seriously.

Make sure you have good lights, it's shit with crap ones.

yeh im in the schools category... and ive done some of the other corc races, but no 24 hours...

I did schools in a team of 3 last year, and can suggest that no one does it, it was hard. my advice:1 is use good lights with the prioraty on year head and if you have a second put that on your bars, 2 bring two pairs of shorts to ride in, one pair is increadibly uncomfortable for 24 hours, 3 plan the race well, have an estimate of what lap times people will do so you know when to expect people in, 4 eat food that you can eat for a long time without getting sick, gels can make you feel horible after a while.

look foraward to raceing you in a few weeks.

Holy shit, you raced in a three man with just one pair of shorts? That's a bit wrong.
