tools for changing tires quickly (at track/autocross)

I've got a small jack and stands, now, looking for a battery powered rachet.

Also considering if a torque limitting adapter should be used.

Please suggest options (and any you might have for sale)

A cordless impact is good for removing, but I'd stick with a regular handheld torque wrench to torque wheels down. Other than that, you have the basics.

Other things I would bring are tire pressure gauge, temperature probe and wheel chocks, in addition to your basic set of tools.

I should have been more direct 'YO, who's got links to impact wrenches for good price'. I have everything else. I need an impact wrench.

The dc820b is 'tool only' no batteries, Looks like what I would want. Now trying to find the 18 volt 1/2 inch wrench with batteries
