😯 The season is set the , vehicles are ready. Where are all the drivers? It seems that we have only a few talkers. There are over a hundred members and only ten talkers. Call your friends and make them comment on what is being said. I hope that my banker dosen’t see the budgets that some of the people have spent but I would like to hear of ways you have spent wisely or even saved money. Mr. Garwood, how much did you sprend locally and how much out of catalogs? I hope to get last little details finished this weekend and get to the track during the week if the weather cooperates . Local track owners please clear off the runoff areas. Thank you in advance.
O Craig, I think you’ll do great in the TAG class. Just remember what we practiced on last year. 8 tires brake and corner better than 4. 🙂
Craig,
Here is a brief breakdown of what I spent at IMI:
New Gold Eyrie Chassis – $2800
2 New Rotax Motors – $2600 each ($5200)
Probably 15 sets of tires – $180 each ($2700)
20 Rear gears – $18 each ($360)
Mychron – $480
40 Gallons Fuel – $3.00 per ($120)
Main Jets – 18 @ $5 ($90)
2 Complete Sets of Wheels – $200 ($400)
misc. parts $500
Total $12,650 at IMI3rd Rotax kart – local purchase – ($3,000)
I spent money at Bandi too
To anser your question, I spent roughly $15,650 locally. I didn’t even put in there the spark plugs, race entry fees, membership fee for IMI, food and drink, oil, additional cik plastic, steering wheel, front end etc.
I’m sure you will miss my money 😉 but probably not the attitude. I know that I’m going to miss racing out there and there doesn’t seem to be a viable option for me to race this year in any series so that pretty much sucks. Hopefully somebody will have an extra kart/motor and I will be able to show up at IMI or GJ and race in the CSC for a couple of races.
