$6-10/lap is probably not that far off as a heuristic.

I think our Lemons team spent around 4k for 1 race, not including the car or safety equipment. Granted it was in FL, but you really can't do this sport inexpensively.

Yeah Pete, We tried to see how much we spend on that whole Lemons endeavor, and quickly decided to get drunk and forget

Btw, the pictures for the Lemons race are up! Check them out here:

Tracking a car (especially a pretty nice car like an S2000) costs MORE than you think it will.

Anyone interested in a 1 day HPDE on the Jefferson circuit for $150? Mercedes will be running this on April 30th (Saturday). Good way to shake off the winter cobwebs.


If we get a group of S2000s, I can see that we get a reserved paddock area set aside just for our cars.
