Personally i think bringing oil for top up is very important
Little things like cable ties as well can save your life! ;)
Thanks for that James...just updated the first post and also explained why not to use the handbrake when in the pits.
im just throwing some things up...
money for tow truck (just incase la)
tools (hammer/drill/socket set etc) to replace car parts/panels
spare susp parts (anything in particular?)
That's probably getting too paranoid.......but i do take a few sockets with me!
Gaffer tape is useful too for that emergency repair.
Also, in some cars, if the fuel tank is full, fuel may spill out of the fuel filler "breathing hole"
like win said earlier... may as well be safer than sorry...
if you plan on tracking, best to spend the extra and get at least engine, transmission, coolant and brake fluid changed!! engine because alot of friction and heat will need to be dispersed, trans coz and huge amount of strain and friction occurs in there when racing, coolant coz of heat... and ofcourse brakes! no brakes at 150kmph+ doesn't sound fun!!
rather spend a little more on fluids than a rebuild and towing fee!
any of u guys want 2 post up some W.A. sites (coz I'd hav to drive across the Half the country to find any of these places
Great thread! Will use the info for next track day.
seriously wyn it isn't....Quote:
