Why pay huge dollars for limited track time? Try this on for size:
Mosport Park June 30, July 1 & 2 - VARAC Classic Vintage Racing and Automotive
Festival $200.00 US if registered before June 5/00.
It's the most fun, best racing and greatest value in North American Vintage
Racing.
If you want more information, just reply.
Bob DeShane, VARAC Festival Organizer

Really hard to tell, but my guess is that it's good old capitalism at work.
Supply and demand and all that stuff. All we have to do is look at the
investments made in tracks, and price that people are willing to pay for
tickets. I don't blame the tracks one bit for making all the money they can --
it sure beats having them go broke like a lot of tracks did in the past.
However, being a budget-limited participant rather than a spectator, I sure hope
the number of events for us doesn't shrink, and since I have decided that I'm
going to race until I physically can't, no matter what the dollar cost, I hope
the entry fees don't screw my kids out of at least a little inheritance. Wonder
what the Road America entry fee will be this year.
Come on, Nasdaq!!!!
