Hey guys... Track newbie here. (Though, drag raced for ~7 years, about 12 years ago)

My question is around what do you take to the track?

If I don't plan on changing wheels/tires, should I still plan on bringing my breaker bar and torque wrench just in case?

Any specific tools you would recommend?

I would assume a quart of oil and a gallon of water. But do any other fluids come in handy?

Pop up seat? Sunscreen? Poncho? Tarp? Cooler?

Appreciate anything you all can share.

Thank you.

Tire pressure gauge. Very important!

Dramamine, in case you start channeling your inner Chris Evans.

Or if you're world famous TrakCar (aka Lord Reter)... nothing. Your fellow competitors offer if they can help you. Including the beer.

In all honesty - for your first track day - you don't need anything. Just show up with a level head and go slow.

Thanks bud.

But I do like to have a sense of what prepared looks like.

I will bring the basics regardless.

Why the impact gun, jack and jack stands if I'm not going to change wheels/tires?

With center locks you can't use an impact gun, you would want a breaker bar. But you do still want tools for pulling a wheel to replace brake pads or bleed the brakes. Even if you don't have a spare set of wheels. If you want to win you will need fresh stickers for each session.

I'm headed to the track right now bringing painter's tape, helmet, and a camera.
