[F500] Cost of racing

[Lindsey, Mark]

If you aren't finishing races due to mechanical breakdowns, then you
aren't spending enough money on preventative maintenance and parts
replacement.  

There's no way I would drag my trailer 650 miles to a track, spend $500
on diesel fuel, food, beer and registration fees, not finish the race
and call that "fun".

It dosen't matter how many you finish it's how many you start.? last
year i didn't finish 10 races but i started 33.? The biggest question is
was it fun and will you do it again?

Dave,

The spreadsheet is a Google Document at
http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=p6IsfjxwRsoTY3ZMmCxLZLA .  If
you can't view it let me know and I'll copy it to an Excel document to
send to you.

Eliminate the fuel cell and the year wan't bad, even though I only
finished one race...
