Having never done this before, any pointers on what I should bring? I'm swapping the BMW OEM brake fluid for Motul RBF600 but running stock pads for now. I need to get a few more track days in before I decide if I want to spend money on the BBK.

On the list is:
Racing jack
Extra oil
Extra brake fluid
Race helmet
Chips, soft drinks, water bottles, lunch meat, bread, etc for food while there
Stock S001 Tires
Torque wrench and a few choice tools

Not bringing:
Extra tires
Extra brake pads

And then other comfort items. As i'm in the novice class, I'm not expecting to go through a set of brake pads or tires. Anything else a novice should bring?
It sounds like you're going to be better prepared than I was for my first one. No, I'm not going.. I was going to go to the Saturday-Sunday BMWCCA event, not the event you're going to, but something came up and I canceled.. but then that got canceled Friday. That doesn't leave enough time for me to get my brake pads/fluid changed and the car safety inspected since I'm out of town all this week.
