Hi my name is Patrick and I'm an over packer.....
electric impacts (fully charged batteries)
electric ratchet (fully charged batteries)
flashlight (same batteries as the ratchet)
1/4, 3/8, 1/2 ratchets
1/4, 3/8, 1/2 socket sets and extensions
assorted screw drivers
craftsman tool kit (organization is your friend)
Timing tools
spare: top hats, timing components, swaybar brackets, nuts/bolts/washers, anything else I can fit
Jack
TQ wrench
breaker bar
brake fluid, coolant, oil, atf
adjustable wrenches

Zip ties
shears
pliers (needle nose, lineman's, side cutters)
Duct/electrical tape
RTV
Fuses/Relays
Assorted detailing supplies

If anyone can think of anything else feel free to let me know so I can add more weight to my car!
 
i will be bringing a Harbor Freight cheapo jack and stands, sockets, wrenches, blinker fluid, extra sway bar bracket and other odds and ends.
 
The $70 special. Good for emergencies. I need to make a rack to allow it in the trunk while driving, but also prevent it from rolling around or bouncing.
 
I went with the 2 ton one as I got tired of the 1.5 breaking all the time. Just a little heavier but does well. Got it for 90 bucks on sale with a 25% off coupin. The speed never carries anything but broken hopes and dreams along with the occasional vice to my nuts and wallet so I don't worry about it rolling around much.
 
I have a big beast for home use now, nice and low-pro. But this one is for road trips and emergencies. If it breaks, I will toss into the recycle bin.
 
^ I'll have a trailer for anyone who may need to visit said garage with a car that can't get there under its own power. Though hopefully that won't happen.

For stock parts I don't have as much as I thought I had, but I'll bring my stock motor mounts and stuff like that just in case anyone blows a mount and needs to limp home with an OEM one.

Typically I have a good stash of wear items that are easy to replace. If not it's tow truck time. But I will have spare brake parts and spare suspension parts as I feel that's what will get the most beat on. If engine stuff is going to break it's going to break and it would have happened even if you weren't at the Dragon. So I put little effort into trying to plan for those issues asthey are hard to plan for.

Is there an auto parts store in the neighbor hood?
With all the tooling around list someone should rent a SnapOn or Mack truck just for this event with a NASA Car 18 wheeler as a mobile garage back up!
I was going to bring lots of tools but with all these awesome people bringing their stuff people like me "The First Timer at The Dragon!" can relax and take it all in!
Thanks you guys for thinking of others first!
 
I will be bringing spare front endlinks, trying to find my oem rear endlinks so i can bring those as well. I will also be bringing a spare passanger side axle (NEW) and seal and well as an axle nut, just in case someone manages to bust theirs. Will be looking through the garage tomorrow to see in there are any other spare parts i can find.
