Event Bag

Postby bryanearll on Sun Dec 12, 2004 6:04 pm

So I'm trying to put together a proper "event bag" for club fun. See if I'm missing something:
1) PCA License
2) High Quality Tire Pressure Gauge
3) Quart of Synthetic Mobil One
4) Helmet, Snell 2000+
5) Extra Water
6) Hat and Sunblock
7) Someday a 5 point harness
8) Someday a mounted fire ext. (Where?)
9) ?

There are some slick ext. mounts that attach to the passenger side seat rail which makes it both accessible and unobtrusive, if you don't mind the $$$. Once you get your roll bar in, it can be attached to that. :D

9. Collapsible chair.
10. Rain gear (depending on weather.)
11. Work gloves for picking up the course afterwards and/or driving gloves if you use them.
12. Windshield cleaning kit.

Event bag

Postby Greg Phillips on Sun Dec 12, 2004 11:42 pm

I use a small plastic tub to tote event things, plus a rolling backpack.
Hat to keep sun off
Sunglasses
Brake fluid
Power steering fluid
12v air pump for tires
Basic tools, depending on your mechanical expertise
Light windbreaker for cool mornings
Prefilled out tech forms
Car numbers and tape to apply them (blue masking tape)
Racer's tape Flashlight

For events further away add more tools and spare parts, coolant and hoses, duct tape, cable ties, brake pads, spare tires
If not on street tires, jack and tire tools, torque wrench

Bryan:

You just reminded me that I have a Brey Krause fire bottle mount for the 996/boxster that I took off my previous car (dont tell anyone I used to have a water pumper, or two). Here is a link to the part: http://www.bkauto.com/porsche/r2020.php

First $50 takes it and I can bring it to the AX this weekend.

David, that sounds reasonable. I will admit to being a little intimidated about the prospect of removing the seat from the car as shown in the installation pictures. Is the removal process difficult? There is a whole host of electronics under there powering the seat.

This begs the question: Is there a "Haynes" or equivalent manual for Porsche's? Model Year 2001. I didn't see any information on the PCA website relating to newer models.
