Default Trackdays - Essential Kit & Do's / Don'ts

Mods - any chance we can do a sticky thread on the above subject.

What needs to be taken / differences between coutries etc / legal requirements for driving in Europe etc..looking at previous threads, seems to be (in no particular order):
  • Hi Viz vest (essential)
  • First Aid Kit (essential)
  • Fire Extinguisher (is this still a legal req in Europe ??)
  • Triangle reflector (essential)
  • Gloves (essential)
  • Helmet (hire at track or buy / essential)
  • 1 litre of Oil (optional)
  • Insurance (type? / recommendations)
  • Driving licence
  • Breakdown cover (if without BMW Warranty / breakdown)
  • Additional brake pads ? (how much do standards hurt on track days ?)
  • Wheels / Cups (optional)
  • Ensure Tow eye on car
  • Ensure noise within limits
Do you blank number plates ?
Do you tape up front lights ?
Any tips on etiquette ?

What else is should be on there ? Any useful links ?

Cheers
