Yes the dial in thing is what kept me out of the final, I broke my dial in time twice in the three final runs. Willowbank didn't have any dedicated area for spare wheels/toolboxes etc. Most of the guys just put there tools/spare wheels etc. on the grass beside the marshaling area, I just left mine all in the boot.

Helmet had to have the Australian standards sticker. paperwork was a entry form/insurance/ with name /address/ car specs/licence number etc. Best thing to do is ring the track office where you will be going and they can give you all the details/requirements.
