You need a tether kill switch and nerf bars. The rest is all optional.

How old are you? can make a difference in what class you can run.

My 400ex always had a small tick. Actually everone I have ever seen ticked a little. Not saying that yours is alright. Checking everything out before you start racing is highly recommended. If you're looking to do xc racing, you're pretty much there in the equipment department.
