Default Couple of recommended changes

a) Flags: This should be just a general info writeup; things vary by venue and track. For example, the White Flag means something totally different at Watkins Glen; it means there is an emergency vehicle on the track - drive slowly off normal line and let emergency vehicle by.

b) What to bring: I bring any tool I can reasonably fit into a small to box - wrenches, ratchets (from 1/4" thru 1/2" drive), accessory tools for brake bleed, multimeter, soldering gun/solder, screwdrivers, hammer, sockets, etc. I also bring extra brake fluid and oil (don't need anti-freeze; have a REAL Porsche. If you have a water pumper, might be good to bring some), fan belts, windshield washer fluid in a spray bottle, roll of paper towls, extra brake pads, etc. Also carry rain gear (coat, hat, umbrella, waterproof shoes/boots). My experience has generally been that if you bring all this stuff, you won't need it! Seems to be working.

c) Track gasoline: If you want the hi-test go-juice sold at the track, be prepared to pay plenty. Watkins Glen had it available for close to $5 a gallon.
