Add chalk to that list. You can use the chalk on the tires to determine whether you are rolling over on the sidewall

Might sound abit stupid. However I would have the # of a friendly tow service in your cell phone incase you break your car.

Numbers........ 8 inches high and 2 inches wide.

i'm strongly suggesting Power Steering Fluid be added.

TRM, in the future, feel free to make update as you wish. I have been MIA trying to finish a new project...

Consider PSF added!

May I recomend that prior to going to the track you look it up at www.trackpedia.com get a good track map and watch some videos....

Bambu for in between sessions
Lol

In addition to the above suggestions, I bring fuel jugs. I use so much 100 octane in a track day that it's a pain going to the pumps every other run session so I fill up the tank and all the jugs first thing in the morning, and then I can refuel wherever I'm parked.

Also, bring a extra set of properly gapped spark plugs and a gapping tool (don't know if anyone already mentioned that).

agreed. chalk or white shoe polish to get your tires to the right pressure.

i would also add a note to the spare tire removal...if you're driving to the track in your track car, you should still bring your spare to the track. just remove it when you are there, so that you have it in case one something happens to one of your wheels. of course, if you are bringing a second set of wheels, this is probably not necessary.

Sounds stupid, but getting a large plastic bin at walmart always helps to keep your stuff together and dry. When its not in your car when you racing.

I always forget getting this when autoxing and I use dumb plastic bags :/

That was the other thing I was thinking was chalk for the tires. Great for regulating tire pressure.
