Tools - full 1/2 and 3/8 metric tool kit, screw drivers, full torx, etorx, hex, pliers, etc. I can disassemble most of the car with what is in a 18"x10" tool box.
Caliper spreader
Zip Ties
Extra Brake Pads
Brake fluid (endless)
Disposable gloves
Window Cleaner
Rubber Remover
Quick Detailer
Paper Towels
Microfiber Towels
Brake Cleaner
OBD Reader
Spare lug nuts/studs, caliper bleeders, caliper bolts/stud nuts, springs, etc

This stuff fits fine in my front trailer box.

Key is good prep before you get to the track.

Oh, and keep an eye on your brake pads, a certain driver here likes to run them down to the backing plate and he got to learn how to change his own pads at button willow last weekend ;-) Luckily a certain other driver here with a massive amount of spares HAD a set of pads for him. This is the THICK side of the pad (trailing edge).

You could easily get home on those

You didn't see the leading edge, it was paper thin, and he had 2 more run sessions left!

Me (to my wife): What did you do different to turn in those blistering fast laps
Wife: More throttle, less brake.
Me: That's it?
Wife: Yup

Maybe I can save money on her brakes.
