No, the Zenons self adjust. Don't ask me how. Perhaps using pixies and magic.

Apparently not as Xenon lights don't project a wide beam in a vertical sense, so they don't blind oncoming drivers - I've never been pulled over about them in Europe

I'll send out the spreadsheet nearer the time, but its handy to have.

I'd add to your list:

Suntan lotion (i know, but I often come home a bit burnt)
Baseball cap for top down driving!
Your fiancee!
Books (in case it rains all weekend)
Duty free booze for afterhours drinkies
Digital camera that takes videos!

I don't know how anyone can drive with a baseball cap on. Asides from the factor, I find the wind's constantly blowing it off.

Eh?

I'm 6'4" and I don't have a problem with losing my cap. Admittedly, I do have a wind deflector fitter, plus my hat is usually so tight that I lose vision after a few hours! : )

Dave you can rest safe in the knowledge that your list isn't that useful. You missed the one thing I always struggle to find on the day of the races.

CAR KEYS

It's a real shame there's no games with the ring it for the PSP. I'm bringing my PSP, but it'd be nice to demonstrate lines etc...

LAst year, I brought my PS2 and Trumpcards bought his portable steering wheel set!

I'm stuck for room this time, but he should be OK to bring any extra gear along with him....

Loads of room in my estate !! No back seats does have some advantages (no back seat drivers for 1)
I was thinking of bringing my small but tres powerful projector so we could hook up someones pc (or PS2) (or Archos) and watch ring footage on a 10 ft x 10 ft bit of wall !! This would be good me thinks.

My Evo is in Oxford as I type getting a new ecu etc after being run in for 600klms. They keep it for 8 days (cold start testing etc) rolling roading it. Collecting next week after a 6 month wait. So you think YOUR excited !!

I hope to at least keep up with you Honda boys to the first corner now !! I'm leaving for Breda on the 10th, I hope to leave there early and get some practice

See you soon, P.S lets see your mug shots, that was class last year seeing who you'd be drinking with in advance of meeting them !!
