    well...where should I start! never done a track day but this is obviously something I should try and answer haha :p

    driving licence (both parts)
    pennies for petrol
    basic tools or whatever it is you need to take the road bits off your bike.... not really necessary to do but the more you take off it, the less you'd have to replace if you go tits up.
    (id take off reg plate,mirrors, indicators maybe).
    spare fuses
    spare bulbs for anything you dont take off the bike.
    duct tape
    cable ties
    phone
    basic medical info
    make sure you have clean undies and socks on.
    the best protective clothing you have. dont think leathers are mandatory there but id recommend em.
    If you have a back protector, wear it
    wd40
    camera to take photos of everyone else
    couple of snacks and drinks
    waterproofs depending on weather.

    ill add in more when i think of it but ill leave out the hardcore 'prepare for everything' shit or you'll break the suspension on the way up there from the weight :p

    Nothing absolutely nothing. Your licence and £10 , the end .

    If your taking the list above , you might as well add a brush shovel and bin bag .

    Enjoy

    Ha ha ha I like the humorous reply by rjvader...or I certainly hope it was meant tongue in cheek?

    You don't need anything except your licence and monies for Three Sisters circuit. It's a small track designed for short circuit bikes and gokarts.
    Get to the track early (from starting time) as it gets very packed later in the afternoon.

    Watch it if it's wet, it turns very slippy. Great when it's dry though. Have fun :)

    Check your bikes fluid levels (including fuel)

    Make sure everything is tight, no loose nuts and bolts.

    Cash for drinks/food keep your energy and concentration levels up.

    Box of condoms because all the fit girls watching will go damp at the sight of the zx4 and....you know....

    Chlamydia and pregnancy tests incase the condom breaks

    A cheap phone with a pay as you go sim. That way if the love child happens you can give them "your number" then throw the phone away.

    DNA Test to prove your not the father. Keep this number in your phone aswell 0161 952 0745 (Jeremy Kyles DNA team)

    You may also need your GCSE results

    A swimming cap

    A baseball bat

    The most important thing being an extension lead

    Have fun :)

    add a Tyre pressure Guage. drop them -5 psi front, -7psi rear from manufacturers recommendations, try this after you've done a session and you'll notice the difference, mainly from the front. Also more importantly take AT LEAST 2 LAPS to WARM your tyres especially on the 2 left handers. See you there, only watchin this time. Wifes takin me away AGAIN so got to stay safe. Tough init.

    Always a pleasure to have NWB in your pit crew...I've had to borrow wire wool, lock wire and lock wire tool from Dayo in the past.
