Seeing as how i am about to take my car to the track for the first time (first time ever for me or the car) im curious to know what you all bring to the track with you. TXdragon started a nice thread awhile back about what to know and expect when getting there as far as rules and track safety. But in regards to tools and extras what do you guys/gals usually bring? Heres my own personal list

Electric impact
socket set
extra gas can full.
spare set of axles
jack and jack stand
torque wrench

 

Slicks
Extra oil never hurts
paper towels/rags
Something to lay on
Bring a battery pack/air tank combo if you have one
screwdrivers Philips/flat
I also bring a cooler with water and something to eat or snack on
I bring a pop up tent if it's going to be a day event, also if you have one

 

A hammer
oil resistant silicone
mechanics gloves
Pliers
cotter keys
cell phone to post super sweet pictures of your time slips

 

All good ideas. I need to get one of those air tanks that can be filled and carried around. Pop up tent is also a great idea. It can also give shade to the car to help cool down if needed.

cotter keys would be good to have as well and some gloves.

 

All depends on the level of your build, if it’s close to being a stock ride.... just keep a AAA membership lol. Me personally, I take the following items

Power inverter
mini air compressor
tire gauge
28 volt impact with wheel key
jack / jack stands
volt meter
crippers and mini case of connectors
spare fuses
computer for programming
‘socket set and some wrenches
cooler with water and some snacks
fan
Something to lay on for service work
set of Allen wrenches
screw drivers
axles hub socket
large flat head to pop out axles
Lower ball joint puller
shop towels
hand cleaner window cleaner
phone charger
extra oil
extra coolant
flash light
cameras/GoPro
extra hose clamps
spare fuel that car got tuned with
......I’m sure I’m forgetting things

 

Long time since I've posted. But while reading this thread I'm thinking AAA membership with 100 mile towing. Back in 2005 my son called AAA and had the car flat bedded home from Lebanon Valley Dragway in NY, it was a free 93 mile tow. Shortly there after we got a used Suburban and 18ft trailer for the car. In 2007 added a 40ft enclosed trailer and Chevy dually. Be careful, this can get expensive.

 

2015 or newer snell helmet if your gonna run faster then 13.99.

pants, they won’t let you run in shorts. I messed up on this once and had to pants swap a buddy who was watching the races lol.

all your lug nuts
