Each to their own. Mine is seven years old; still looks like new after constant use; is lighter than a Jerry Can and the opening mechanism doesn?t rust.

I have a VP Racing fuel container as well and it?s brilliant. If you haven?t already, get yourself one of these (5L) as it makes life easier when filling up in the paddock.

Yup.. so I was dry pulling in after a sesh...opened my fuel cap, upended the 20 ltr container and couldnt believe how quickly it filled my tank...like less than 1 minute.

Do you fill the 5 ltr one from the big one.. I found the nozzle on the big one tricky, but once you up end it it's a dawdle...

Yes. I just use the Sealey container to fill the tank between sessions. It just saves manhandling 20Ls of fuel every time you fill up. I only put in enough for a couple of sessions and very rarely run a full tank on track. After a few trackdays you will soon know how much fuel the bike uses per session and when to put more in.
 
Trackdays

Ordered, anything else you find useful that I should consider?

No, not really. Only take what you actually need. A lot of people take far too much kit hence why garage space is often at a premium. It?s a trackday not a race weekend! You only really need to take the essentials like paddock stands, tyre warmers and a basic toolkit.
 
Here's my van for two days at Cadwell. Got a brilliant sleep using a camp bed my mate gave me and my LED lights worked brilliant.
