Available - Oct 7th Costs: Corner Workers (6 necessary) $12/hour x 8 hours = $576 Ambulance $60/hour x 8 hours = $480 Track Rental $3000 Insurance $1800 Total $5856 Pricing assumes no rate increases and hinges upon their insurance underwriter's approval Pros A little closer to Indy A little cheaper Cons Fuel sales - we pay for and need to get reimbursed by the driver getting fuel Not the same "team" feeling the other place provides, more like a "we" and "them" thing (staff-wise) Track NEEDS repair, and they told me so (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Everything is OLD NHRA owns the track, everything but Drag Racing is "filler" Not sure if local drivers will fill field (if we want them to or not) Turn 9 - We lost 5 cars in 1 day at this turn Turn 15 - Someone moved a solid concrete barrier 15 yards that day Most armco is not protected with hay or tires (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-11-1099340175.gif) (Mike 387.7341) |

tech shouldn't have to be expensive if the car is cared for.
Most owners can tech their car before they arrive at the track. What we do is the bare minimum....lug torque, brake fluid, no leaks, wheel bearing play, brake lights, etc... Helmets could be a sponsorship thing, we're gonna have the same issue at the WCC, there is a DE there, too. |
