I've been going over this and this is what I've come up with ....

Mine is about $5000 ....

Events:
$1500 - Fees (5 events)
$400 - travel related expenses (2 events*)

Consumables:
$1500 - Tires (2 sets)
$250 - brake pads (1 set)
$400 - front rotors (1 pair)

Repairs:
$500 - to fix what I break

* I live 15 minutes from a race course

That is the short list. How does your compare? Do you even want to know?

For myself it depends on how much I really want to spend. Here are the break downs for me but this could be clased a a whole yr for some people. Road mileage this yr is 6000 in a week, and track milege is aprox 300. Just to get to and back from the start is 1400 miles.

One Lap Of America 04 total mileage aprox 7700 in 8 days (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
Entry fee 2100
Tires 1200
Maintance cost 500 to get ready
Fuel costs 700
food 150
hotels 200 Lots of driving and sleeping very little in car when you can
brakes and rotors 400
brakes and rotors 400 when you get back
Weekend at Beave Run to warmup car and myself
included fuel 500
Broken Parts ???????????

I might hit some local autocross's but My budget for the yr is just about gone. Getting a co-driver that can drive at tracks can lower the entry fee, fuel and hotel. But as a car owner im responsable for the rest. Can anybody say AAA GOLD Member for that unexpected problem or even Bail Money!!!!!!!:) Later John
