Spartan Super Advice

I am in decent shape and trying to complete a Spartan Super race end of this month. I finished a Spartan Sprint earlier this year but there were a couple times that I felt like I was going to die because I was thirsty (the 2oz paper cups weren't enough) and my stomach was hungry. I need some advice...

What if anything should I take with me on the Spartan Super for hydration and fuel?

    @ttanderson79 did you ever figure it out? How was the race?

    Depending on which race it is, would determine how much fuel I suggest. For Super mountain races I personally carry a 3L camelbak with electrolyte water in it along with salt tabs, 5-6 gu packets and some energy bars for emergency use. I did the VA Super a few weeks ago and went through about 10 salt tabs and 5 gus. And almost all the water.
