Ideally for track it would have a built in tool section like the keirin tote bag and clips/hooks/webbing on the outside for attaching track pump, rollers, wheels and other assorted crap that always make the journey from car park to track centre a painful juggling act.
If you have a look at Tom Bihn bags they're all about having compartments and using smaller bags to organise things. They have little hanging clip things to add various neat holders. Worth gettin some ideas from there.
@ objectbags I would have thought using a similar system would be a good idea as it allows people to adapt their stuff as they need. Plus it gives you lots of Different products to sell.

Race clothes (lots if away for a race weekend), civvy clothes (same), towel, cycling shoes, helmet, gloves, trainers, glasses (racing and civvy), wash bag, several water bottles, protein shaker, EAI tote bag with tools, chainrings & sprockets etc, food, wallet, keys, phone, pen, notebook, laptop (for donkey porn if away), salami, beers, plus various other bits of miscellaneous crap.
Then the large stuff like track pump, rollers and wheels.
I've been struggling to find the perfect track bag for years. I drive to the track most of the time so have a huge cheap puma wheeled kit bag, which is perfect when lugging stuff from the car park to track centre, unfortunately there aren't many compartments so it's a bit of a ball ache hunting around for stuff (phone & keys usually) in there quickly.
If also have a trolley that I sometimes bungee bag, rollers, pump and wheels to but it's a bit of a faf so I don't bother most of the time.
The bag is finally on it's way out after four years of solid abuse so I've just ordered one of these:
I like that it's well compartmentalised, pretty big and has wheels and a changing mat but it's still not perfect.

For non race days when I don't need to lug a whole load of crap with me or when I'm riding my road bike to track league I would also like to find a large courier bag with built in tool/chainrings/sprockets section and space for kit/water/food etc.
