Well if this is the place where you can go all out speed, I suggest a tool box and a first aid kit.

yea there is no speed limit, so total destruction is conceivable. I asked another friend who suggested getting a new air filter and fuel filter before i go... and then potentially replacing them again after the trip... im defintly going to replace those when i get back, but do u think i should have fresh ones from the get go?
A clogged air filter = bad perfomance right? not a cooked engine?
all i got is a digital still camera, but ill try to take some pics of the festivity...

If you're gonna be driving it like crazy, may I suggest a helmet?

lots of stock filters and change every couple of runs.
