just tugging your nuts cuz you love drag racing.

Well you have to rent a hotel, pay for an instructor to sign you off to drive alone, rent time on the track, pay for gas, pay for tires if you burn them up, helmet, food etc. Its a very expensive weekend...but very fun. Ive been invited many times but I just couldnt get tires and that much money on a whim.

Thers also a track in Iowa that isnt to bad either we could try for.

theres track fee's then the money you pay to have your car prepped (by yourself)

That is not how it work here. Usually its per track you have to prove you can drive, or have race license. Rallyracer and myself know a couple of the instructors at BIR. We could see if we can jump in a bmw race weekend with our buddy, then the costs are a little lower. But it was like 400-500 alone just to go and drive the weekend, not counting what you have to pay to prep the car, car, lodging, food, tires etc. sooo like I said plan on at least $1k total cost to hit the track.
