The Ultimate Packing Guide
Here Jo Hausel presents the Ultimate Packing Guide for the world's toughest Drag and Drive competition!
Do you often forget your phone on the kitchen table? Or maybe take the wrong items on vacation? Underwear instead of swim trunks? In any case, we got help from a Street Week veteran to compile a packing list for all active Street Weekers. If you are a driver, co-driver, or team member, it is invaluable since part of the very meaning of a Drag 'n' Drive is that all participants bring their tools and spare parts as outside help is not allowed. So read carefully and bookmark, or copy the list and remove items that you know your team doesn't need right now.
We thank Jo Hausel for choosing to share something that everyone needs. If you don't just want to rely on luck, you should simply follow the list to increase your chances of having a successful week. What do you think? Is there anything missing?
