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) |

QUOTE I've never done AX before though, so I don't really know what's involved I can only speak for SCCA, never done PCA AX event. You can use M rated helmet, most tech is to make sure all loose stuff is removed from the car, check wheel bearing play, and helmet is at least 1995 M or SA . Also average cost per car is $20, some regions charge $25 for non SCCA drivers but if we could work something out with the local region. The Indy region of the SCCA held a event in Walesboro, which, according to mapequest, is only 4 miles from Columbus. I could contact them about their 2005 schedule and see if we could work something out with them where they would schedule a AX there when we would be there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) edit: I forgot I did one PCA event but my helmet is SA rated. Not sure it they allow M rated helmets or not.
