    Pit Box

    What all do you guy's have in your pit boxes that you take to the races? Just wondering what all to take. TIA
    One run at a time. Then pick up the pieces.

        During the last week before you race, put everything you used to finish off and test your boat(s) in a box. Take that box to the race.

          As much as you possibly can. But the nice thing about boat racing is that other boaters will always be willing to help out if possible.

            Basically, most of what I use is in four plastic containers that fit inside of a square tote bag. Basically, bring everything you can!!!

            I do have a small bag that has one small plastic storage box at the bottom and I have several props, wrenches, and drivers needed for the collet, prop, and tightening any screws on the boats. Then the rest of the space is for batteries and tape. Basic on the water supplies.

                  Something with a strap that can go over your shoulder to keep your hands free for the boat or whatever...

                    Something like this..


                    That one is a little over the top, but something with plastic trays inside of it and a shoulder strap. Actually, hmm, I may need to get one of these...better than the one I currently use!
