What would the recommended fuel level be to start the event? ½ tank, full tank?

Are gloves required? Are they a good idea?

Anyone planning on going to the Infineon event on 9/22?

Thanks---
Well, since I instruct for NASA..and they are pissed that I dont show up to enough events..I guess I can comment. You can use a SA2000 or SA2005 helmet...just use a full tank..too frickin hard to get gas multiple times during an event...gloves are not required..but if you are someone that sweats alot..then get them..(or if you are at an event that will be high in temp). Sorry..not going to Sears Point on 9/22...is that the BMW event?

I am going to Sears on Oct 6-7th with the Audi club..come by (pay the $44 club fee) and I can take you out with me for a session or two. Have to join to be covered by the blanket insurance policy.
