Default Re: Cost to attend Baby Gators

Hey Danny, I’ve been gone from home since Friday March 1st. So far I’ve sent roughly $550 in diesel for the motorhome (still have to get back to va) can include the race fuel since I got 7 cans before I left and still had 2, had to get 4 tires for the race car, that’s gonna happen as it’s a wear item. We’ve been to dinner several times but with that and food for the motorhome I’ve spent roughly $300. Signing up for the Lucas contingency and other things it’s hard to figure how much this trip will cost. Typical trip is roughly $1000 for d1 races that I spent last year.

Danny, On the low end of things:
Vegas, 600 mi. round trip,
$200 , gas, with owned Class C RV.
Open owner built trailer.
$ 170 entry for one
Fuel, if lucky, $100.
Knock off $150 , gas for Chandler.
I don't count food.You have to eat anywhere.
I've had an RV since 1992. Personally, I wouldn't do it any other way. Don't care much for track hot dogs..When you're at the track from dawn to dark, the convenience is worth it.
All you need to do is factor in the beer ;-) We'll have another one some day, bud

According to the bookkeeper(wife) I raced 5 national events, 7 divisionals and 1 national open race last year that cost me just over 20 thousand last year. It's pretty accurate but there are a few things she is not aware of.......

The beer is probably more than the entry fee, lol....
