Ice is probably overkill... plus, if the session gets moving you can have as little as 5 minutes between runs, which isn't enough time for a bag of ice to really make a difference.

You really should run a few events before worring about minutia like this... the things you're talking about will gain you hundreths per run, whereas seat time alone will gain you seconds per run.
