For those of you that travel with your cars and tools from track to track, event to event, friend to friend, lugging your stuff all over in an organized fashion is important. Many have found fishing tackle boxes to be ideal for HO scale. There are some custom made wooden boxes, as well, for HO, 1/32 and 1/24 scale folks. Here are some do's, don'ts and interesting setups.
Do's
When storing cars for along time, keep the wheels elevated so they don't get flat spots.
Put a stopper on your oil when transporting it to keep it from spilling.
Keep it all organized. Remember the saying "A place for everything and everything in its place."
Don'ts
Don't toss stuff in the top and tell yourself "I'll sort it out later"
Don't bring everything you own. Keep it light, keep it simple.
When setting up at the track, keep your space tidy, compact and well-lit.
