New to off-road essentials?

New to off-road essentials?
I've been driving electric touring cars off and on for about 10 years now. I'm not the kind of guy to go all out and buy everything I need. I tend to travel pretty light and picking things up as I find necessary along the way. Just recently I borrowed a 2WD buggy and had a blast so now that I have my own I was curious what are some essentials that I may not already have. I picked up a taller stand since my TC foam was too short, and the only other thing I can think of is a larger setup table and off road camber gauge?

A pick tool for removing dirt from screw heads. I use a dental pick that cost $1 on eBay and it works great. Going over the screws with the pick helps to avoid stripping them.

Another item you may find useful would be a small container with a brush glued to the inside so you can throw some water in there and clean your tires at your pit station.

Something that I find really handy is an electric screwdriver with a 2 mm speed bit. It makes screwing in those screws that are 12mm+ a lot easier and quicker.

Here's a small list of my essentials:
Tools for the Pit Table
I recently saw a nice budget multi-tool here which has a few more features than the TEKNO tool that I'm using:

Definitely worth investing in a larger pit board too!
