But then the distances out here are a lot further than they are where you are... And we have mountains in the way. Our diesel bill FAR outweighs all our other costs.
Actually fuel (Motorhome and generator)makes up a little more than a third of my cost,entry fees almost another third and the remaining third is for getting the crew in, feeding them,beer, pop ice and all the misc. stuff we seem to need. I also don't count race fuel (methanol) in this budget as I buy it all at once in the spring before the season starts
Keep in mind this is per day and I usually race both days so for a two day weekind it costs ~$600.
