For me, personally, any Div 1 NHRA race is close to, or more, than a thousand dollar investment. Norwalk and Columbus Div'l races maybe 600-700. Any IHRA weekend (other than Pittsburgh) is also $1K bill for the weekend, or more. Pretty much, I would have to win the (NHRA( race to make anything (R/U I might not even break even). IHRA, I need to win one day or R/U both days to break even (unless I sleep in a tent beside the trailer and eat baloney sandwiches all weekend for every meal).

What's wrong with bologna?
