Title: ASRA Team owners program
Post by: ahastings on January 08, 2008, 03:31:22 PM
Anyone out there done this? Is it  worth it? $700 just to be eligible for the points fund. I might be able to run as many as 6 ASRA rounds . I know it says suggested payout, can anyone tell me what  the actual payout was this year for any of the ASRA classes other than team challenge.

I did it in 2004. There were some tangible benefits.  I don't know what the program is for 2008, but you'll just have to sit down and figure out some of the costs.  I think the cost covered what I would have paid for myself and my crew member's gate pass, then offered the additional benefits. 

That make some sense?

I am debating trying it
it gets you and one other person into the event which pays for itself plus some if you go to all the ASRA events
plus they say you don't have to wit in lines to register which i haven't seen any team owner lines except for Daytona
and they say you go to the front of the line at tech ...does that mean you just cut in front of everyone else who is sitting in line? if so thats not cool
but what i am unclear on is combining points for team owners
if you are running only one class as compared to some one running three classes
if they finish well in all classes as well as you do in one if they combine points for the team running three how do you beat that?
i think the best thing to do would be to email Eric and ask him

You dont have lines at registeration because registration opens earlyer for team owners than for everyone else. They are already done with registration (usually) when it opens to everyone else. Otherwises I just asked one of the ladys in registration which line to use for team owners and they would usually just take me off to the side and take care of my registration, no waiting in lines!  :biggrin:

Tech on the other hand I never got any special treatment. It was first come first serve.
