Here is a tip. Unless you have a really nice paying job, a sponsor or a sugar mommy, you will want to save money every way you can as everything is a money pit.

Here is a typical weekend

#1 Brake pads ($400 for about 4 events)
#2 Gas (3 tanks for the weekend)
#3 Hotel ($100)
#4 Entry fee ($400)
#5 Tires ($1200) can use maybe 5 events
#6 Rims ($1000) let's say you use it over 3 years.
#7 Food and other misc items ($100)
#8 Racing fluids

Optional are datalogger ($500), camera with mounts ($200), safety equipment ($500), timing equipment AMB ($300).

Without the cost of the car, it's easily a $10K per year hobby. I make okay money, but I always look for ways to save.

Here is the sad part.

I won some money at a track event a while back by getting the fastest time. Yet some avatard in a pimped out Lexus with a big stereo and bodykit got just as much in the car show portion.
