Hi everyone, I'll be attending my first IMSA race in Bowmanville next week and also camping for the first time from thursday on, so I have some questions.

1. Is it worth it to bring something like a canopy to stake out a spot or look for tree cover when watching the race?
2. Is it safe to leave your car and tent to walk around the track? Is it possible to leave to get something from a store and leave your tent in place?
3. What should I be mindful of and what should I bring (apart from the essentials: tent, sleeping bag, etc etc)?
4. Is it worth it to bring a cooler or is the food at the track good and cheap enough to justify?

If there's anything else I should be aware of please let me know, I would really appreciate it. Thank you!
