I think part of the problem was timing. I know for us, coming this late in the school year made it difficult. We didn’t want to miss any school so close to the end of the school year. I’m sure we weren’t the only ones.
The other thing is that karting in general is down and the high price of travel (gasoline) certainly doesn’t help. Even the CSC at Bandimere was down compared to last year (but up from the first year).
You’re right, Black Rock is a fine track and they really treat you well over there. We hope to be at the Black Rock Summer Shootout.
Joe,
I had planned on going, but with Gas prices and reschedule of two CRE races with back to back Sat-Sun races have lessen my enthusiam to be driving all over.
Another back to back this weekend!
This racing in 3 different series is getting expensive. I may have to re-think my comittments next yr.
A trip to Black Rock would have cost $750-$1,000.
:idn:
I was going to go but changed my mind at the last minute for pretty much the same reasons as Rich.
Also, I don’t like 3-day weekends for non-professional races. It adds a lot of cost (hotel, meals, etc) and you have to take an extra day off of work. You should be able to get even events with large numbers of entries in in two days.
