Should also bring a folding chair and, if you have the room, a canopy for much-needed shade if not available at the track. Also, if car numbers are needed, some painter's tape, which can also be used to cover and protect your headlights. If you're a sweater, a balaclava is a good idea to protect your helmet liner.

looking forward to my track day at Mid-Ohio, but as an engineer, did not like the torque wrench portion early in video. As a manufacturing engineer, we find "1-one" clickers often result in over-torque of the fastener. Best practice is to back fastener off, then torque....I have no problem with "double click" if wrench does not move in rotation angle. P-Chi
