then reg for the year as in licience/logging last year was either 150 or 100,cant remember exactly
entry is 100 euro last year anyway,,you will get some mechanics bands with that also,
your petrol for the event
your tyres for the event
food of coarse
and fuel to tow ur car
after that its the running and servicing of your car
cool its not to bad so then,expensive but not to bad,thanks for that bud,newish to all this crackQuote:

How many times do you get to run now if you don't qualify?And do novices get the same amount of runs as pro?last time I done mondello you got 8 corners if you didn't qualify

Tyres E40 (didnt even fully use two decent part worns over 2 days at portlaois so should manage 1 round on two more fresh enough part worns I'm guessing), plus already have R888s on the front so they should last a bit.
Then travel down, food, drink, accomadation etc., but its all stuff I'd probably be paying anyway. So I see the round as costing me on the actual day an extra 200 quid, more if I go further obviously but dont see that happening lol!
Helps to have a small light car, rather than a big power pro spec monster of course...:D
I thought you're not allowed r888's anymore??Quote:
