Racer Support Trailer
I’m thinking of starting a racer support trailer to take to the races. What kind of parts and/or supplies do you think would be good to keep in stock? Any help would be appreciated and I hope to see you at the races soon.

There are alot of obvious parts to carry, but I have found a need for batteries, wheel studs, spare MSD box, coils, misc. electrical supplies, maybe a metric bolt supply, shoe polish, starters, alternators, fuel pumps, maybe a shifter?
Don't forget the tie wraps and duct tape.

seen one at great lakes dragaway one time. It was a semi + trailer LOADED with stuff. Whatever our car broke that day the guy didn't have in stock and it was something stupid too. Lots of racers went in looking for something and he didn't have it. Did have fittings, gaskets, a carb or two, set of slicks, etc etc. Different bolts in a few sizes in standard, no nitrous refills, but I bet that would be a hot ticket at the dragstrip to get refills on site.

I can think of alot of things:
u joints
driveshaft loops
welder/fab tools, and someone with you that's good with onsite repair's
plugs
wires
belts of all kinds/sizes
hoses
AN fittings and line of all types
tires
tire patch kits
fuel
a couple sets of in date 5 pt harnesses for guys that show up with expired ones. I'd keep one set in the trailer
electrical wiring supplies
fuel pumps
carb's, carb parts, jets
msd box's, one of every type probably
distributors
exhaust clamps
gears, all kinds for 12 bolts, 9 inch, dana axles
o2 sensors
valvesprings maybe, tools to change them.
Ya may want to keep a couple trailer tires in stock too, in case someone gets a flat at the track or on their way
I could go on and on... those are just the first things that come to mind.

When you go to race, you come ready for War. Like said there is A LOT of **** you can bring. the question is do you feel like emptying out the trailer evertime, or how much racing do you do.
I know guys who have complete motors if they are running a big event. So really the question is, how hardcore are you?
