you got away lightly with $300 for tires.

i had to buy four sets,
rains and dots for two bikes.
no wood to show for it either.

OMG  when Tom Mason told me the price for the Michelins, im like "No i need a front and rear !"  I think it was like 297$ for a set of dots !   I think he said the slicks would be 5 bucks more !!   WOW !

I had rains from last year that were OK, not the best but good for learning the track.

Here's the deal of a lifetime.  I'll sell six CCS amateur regional championship trophies or two CCS expert regional championship trophies, either set for the rediculously low price of $20K!
(When I wanted to buy a duplicate championship trophy to give to my faithful friend and mechanical assistant John, I believe the cost was around $30...)

People don't believe me when I say it costs me $2k to roll the trailer...

$30k in a season is not unrealistic

You can look like you're good at a lot of things, cheap!  ;D

I considered buying a couple and giving them out for the "best wreck" class...  I really didn't want to get beat up while handing them out though  ;D

I used quick trophy to get a couple trophies for a BMW car show/meet I'm putting on in Philly for April 18th.  2 trophies engraved with shipping was about $25  :o

 Well you shouldn't need fork springs and a lap timer each trip so it cuts it down to $1,307 as long as you don't wreck. 4 days on a beach in Mexico would be close to that and boreing.
 Trouble starts with the realization you wouldn't take 10 Mexican vacations a year!

I gave out a home made "Bling Bling Award" at a track day before which consisted of a Burger King Crown, and a six pack of Bud Light ;D   Believe it or not, some guy was riding a Chromed out BUSA at Grattan, and then he lowsided in the bowl so he got the award.
