A T10 torx driver

I converted all me screws to torx in my x-6 squared because of a tip I saw on the XF site from Brian Kinwald. They really do tend to strip out A LOT less if ever.

it all depends on the car you have at the track, at the moment. for rc10's ... my .50, 3/32, 5/64, 2.5mm, 1/16 wiha drivers, 1/4, 8/32 nut drivers, new paint brush, tooth brush, needle nose pliers, rpm shock tools, and double sided tape. aside from the other "tool boxes" i bring too.

All the tools mentioned above, plus at least one of every part on the car--because inevitably they won't have one, no matter where you are, or what car it is

I just take everything I have to the track, cause you never know what you're going to blow up.
