I may be interested, but I want to budget it out first:

-Car 500/4 = $125
-Drivers Fee = $100
-Race Licence = $50
-First Time Racers Class = $25 (mandatory)
-Timing Transponder $50/4 = $12.50
-Nomex racing suit = $350+ (minimum 2 layer unless you want to also wear flame retardant long johns)
-Gloves = $50-100
-Helmet, shoes, socks if you don't have them

Then you have things like window nets, safety padding, fire extinguishers, the roll cage, and other safety equipment.

Then finally car prep.

Brakes, engine, repairs, bodywork, tires, lighting

~$2000 / 4 = $500

Gas as well.

This is a total of 14 hours of driving. 7 on Sat 7 on Sun.

Then you have transportation costs, camping fees ($20 a night donation) food while there etc etc etc etc etc etc approx another $100 each


In total that might Come to $1350-1550 each for the weekend.

Does that sound about right? It might be hard to choose this over 2-3 track days at mosport big track lol... Although this in a way would be cooler.
