Delete audio tracks:

right click on the audio track (not in the timeline, in the track part at the left). If you click far enough to the left you'll see a menu that says "delete audio track". Same goes for video tracks.

event attributes:

If you want to get the effects from one clip to others, you have a couple options. You right click on the clip and select copy (or use CTRL+C). Then on the clip you want to have the same effects applied, right click and select "Paste event attributes". That will paste all the effects to that clip, but not overright the clip with the other one. The other option is to apply a given effect to an entire track. To do this drag the effect to the track instead of the event. You can also effect the entire project by preview window.

Best quality:

I'm not sure what you mean by this, typically its garbage in garbage out, but I've found that, with DV footage, apply a slight croma blur to the entire project. This helps smooth out some of the DV artifacts because Vegas upresses to 444. Also, in the project properties, make sure the video quality is set to Best instead of Good.
