What your cost per run down the track

boster · 03-20-2013, 08:06 AM

Recently I was talking to a friend about the cost per run to our race cars at the Cecil div 2 race & the Gators. My cost per run was about $1000 and my friend was around $900. Im curious what was yours ? . Please include every dime you spent getting ready to go , spent on fuel's , entry , travel expense, repair , flat tires , drinks, labor , lost wages and food as well as anything else you may have spent to and from the races.

Divide that number by the times you went down the track even if the weren't full passes . If you did not go to these races please look at the last race you raced

Umm...there are things that should go unsaid just as there are things that should go un-calculated.

The more rounds you win, the less it costs.

That is not really true unless you get to the final.Losing in the fifth round of a Division race costs you more money than losing in the first round.

Doing a cost per run and looking at the bottom numbers on your Snap On tool slips are things no one should ever do. Side effects of doing either of these could lead to quitting, depression, over indulging in adult beverages in attempts to forget the numbers just seen and a realization that your must truly hate your money.
