Going to brew a Pale Ale tomorrow

Ingredients list:

3.3 lbs. Gold malt extract
3.3 lbs. Amber malt extract
1/2 lb. Crystal 10°L malt
1/2 lb. Carapils grain blend
1 oz. Willamette bittering hops (60 min)
1 oz. Fuggles aroma hops (5 min)
1 x 11g packet of Nottingham dry yeast
3/4 cup corn sugar for priming

I decided to try the dry yeast out, they are cheaper and I'd like to get experience with both types of yeast available. This is a pretty basic type of ale also so I'm not really relying on the yeast for flavor.

I plan to brew the same as my previous batch except for some minor changes that I detailed in the notes as well as the use of dry yeast.
