I try to remember to bring a couple of bottles of water to save a few bucks. Sandwich might be a good idea too. Cell phone and AAA card for good luck!
A PEN to fill out the tech card and of course your driver's license.

Don't know how fast your car is Corz....but I will find out on the 16th at NED....if it is in the 11's or better you'll need a fire jacket.
You only need a helmet if you go in the 13's. If not, you won't need it.
