First, if you are not a club member fill out the test and tune day pass on motorsport registration (link under registration> all events> single day test and tune pass). Bring your go kart in as complete of a state as possible so that you can maximize your running time on the track. For rotax it would be wise to bring a jerry can of mixed gas ad have that ready for when you need to top up. Bring all of your safety equipment: snell approved helmet with closed face, gloves, high top shoes, rib vest and a racing suit (a leather jacket can substitute for this however all clothing items worn on track must be abrasion resistant). A tire pressure gauge is a good idea if you have one, as well if you have a mychron or other data logging device, make sure the battery is charged (mychron 5) or have a spare battery (mychron 4 or earlier).
