First competition

[aulovel]

So this is my first post here and I know it should probably go In the spl area but it seems kind of dead. I'm going to my first competition tomorrow and I'm going to compete in it. I was wondering what all should I bring? Like tools to fix anything that could break, fuses, battery jumper, chairs or anything else like that. What do you guys bring when your going to a competition?

I bring a toolbox full of shit. Somebody (usually not me) ALWAYS needs something. I could do a whole install from scratch with the shit that I bring.

But you don't *need* all that stuff. It's nice to have though. I'd feel nekkid without at least a phillps head or drill, some electrical and duct tape and some snips though.

Just bring yourself and have some fun. This shit is supposed to be fun. Isn't it?

This. I keep every tool I could need to fix something "on the road" in the back of my seat. Ratchet wrench set under the seat ftw! Ya never know when something could come loose or break and you need to fix it. Keep fuses if you run them as well. Multimeter is a must!

Good luck btw. What does your system consist of?

A heavy *** toolbox is a great way to "brace" the floorboard, take up a bit of cabin and maybe even accidentally create a pocket too. Shhh!!!!

*winkwink*
