Don't go too crazy on the turbo for your first season. Usually competent testers are beaten by podgy mtbers at local level cross. Nothing less motivating than having all that power then not being able to put it down come race day.
Learn to corner and dismount, ride singletrack, get comfortable improvising a bit.
