Ive lost count how many ring trips ive done and never taken any spares of anything.... maybe im just lucky.

i tend to tAke a boot full of shit, after various things going wrong over the years.

Most common and useful things however are a
spare rim with tyre fitted (as punctures or tyre/rim damage very common) and new pads (always seem to be nicking someones pads at lunchtime).

Based on common CSL faults and consumables you should take the following:

Coil packs
Pads
RTAB
Clutch
Flywheel
Diff
Gearbox
Head Gasket
Boot Floor

Dunno mate, mega busy at the moment and poor! Would like to as it'd be a laugh but gets expensive to stick it in a truck for that many miles. More likely to come along with someone else I think.

+ 1. Although I did have a rear spring snap coming back on the M20 in my 911 once. It sounded like a gun went off in the back of the car.

Surely as it is a group effort not everyone needs to take everything. As long as a few people have spare jack, axle stands, relays, brake pads, coils, wiper blades, wheel front/rear, bulbs (compulsory I know but hey).

Come on Shimmy impose your will, dominate the untermensch

.

Hopefully it will go without event. I hope to see an interesting write up and some good photographs.

I think people should be free to carry what they want and not be dominated by a faceles internet clown telling them what to do. (me that is.....Trawler will like that!)

I'd like to take nothing extra but I'm too scared!

The more you take the less you'll need, that's what I find. I always have a salmon relay and a coil in my boot at all times.... just incase.
