Got my first full day on track on Friday at Bedford. I'm trying to work out what to take with me. Now I'll take some drinks and bits with me but I didn't really want to take more than a rucksack of tools as I dought I would have the skills to mend it if I did take stands and a trolley jack.

All I was planning on taking was -

duct tape,
scissors,
zip ties,
pliers,
screwdrivers,
torque wrench,
Socket that fits the wheel nuts.

Would you add anything else?

Maybe a wheel chock - you don't want to use the handbrake after track sessions.

Enjoy! driving

Cheers guys, will certainly not forget my license! Carry both parts most of the time now as I have been hiring a lot of cars recently.

Great news on the TVR guys, will give me something to ogle at and to chat to as I'll be on my tod. Heading over from Oxford way so not too early of a start.

Cant wait now, done a few 30min sessions on Silverstones national circuit so looking forward to a few more corners. I have booked an instruction session as it helped me loads at Silverstone as it just gives that bit more confidence your using the right lines.

FLuid and pads have been done following Silverstone. Motul RBF600 fluid and Carbone Lorraine RC5+ pads
