You pretty much got it covered. I’ll add:

A cheap Walmart wall clock to hang somewhere easily seen. No more asking “how long till our next session”.

Optional: A scanner so you can hear track official calls.

A big electric fan.

Can’t stress enough a heavy duty ezup canopy and some way to weight it down when on paved parking lots and can’t use stakes. I got 40 lb sand bags that strap to the legs.

Pieces of indoor/outdoor carpet to put down for changing and working on bikes.

I thought you forgot zip ties and I was about to go apeshit crazy on you but then I see you have it in there. I'll go one further with a wide selection on sizes of zipties. Skinny, thick, short, long.

Maybe it goes without saying, but a wide selection of spare metric fasteners and spare race fairing dzus. Torque wrenches.

Was Ducktape on the list?

Oh, don’t forget pain relievers and beer for afterwards.

Very comfortable couch

I like to wear ear muffs, shooting ear protection, when I need quiet time. All can see I cannot hear them. And paper towels or cloth towels for wiping sweat, or spills. And for hot days, a spray bottle for misting oneself, with cool water. Hand wipes to remove grease.

Paper with all your important information and who to contact, you will give it to your neighbor in case things happen. This applies if you are at the track alone or with people that don't know this info.

To follow up on this. Put you’re insurance info, and special med info(I’m allergic to morphine) in your helmet. You may end up in ER bare ass naked but you’re helmet will be there with you.

Baby wipes and C clamps for the leathers

I wear a Road ID necklace under my leathers. It's got all my allergy and medical info on it, along with contact info. Of course they should have all that from the track day / racing org, but it doesn't hurt. It's a thing I learned from my bicycling friends. I use it anytime I ride my motorcycle. It's right there on your chest for first responders. More important on road rides. I'm allergic to penicillin, if they give me that I die.

It looks like a good list with some nice add-ons.

Two of my favorites not on the list:

1) Notebook to chart my day/weekend. General info at the top. Then each session with time, temp, track temp,tire pressures, and Plan of Action. Followed up by what happened, written at the end a the session. This is a great help the next time you show up at that track.

2) 12 in 2x4 with 3/4 piece of plywood attached (plywood is cute to shape) to the 4 inch surface of the 2x4. Makes the perfect helper for rear tire changes/installs. Assuming you have a double sided swing arm like me

I have a crashbag where I put my car keys, wallet, mobile phone and other things I might need if I end up at a hospital.
After having tried to find all those things in friends RV´s or caravans most of us now got these bags.
