How much did you spend on track days this year?

cgt1229 · 10-21-2012, 08:26 AM

I spent $530 for three track days including tires. My long time friend payed for my first visit to the Ridge back in June.

What a guy. He claimed I was never compensated for being a groomsman in his wedding.

Around 125 laps I figure I completed in those 3 events with PSSR.

It took me over 10 years to get back on the track, but I'm still riding the same bike. Hope to do 3-4 a year from now on.

Maybe make it $650 to $700 with spark plugs, oil, gas, etc.

not nearly enough!!

7 track days, for me AND my wife, plus gas oil tires/a kendon trailer to get the bikes there.

Alot, but I'd do it again in a minute!

LoL If I added it up they wife would kill me!

I did 6 rounds with OMRRA, 3 rounds with WMRRA at The Ridge, All the Motofit events, all the 2-Fast events at PIR and The Ridge, all the MotoCorsa Events at PIR, 2 PSSR days at PIR, A Sully day at The Ridge and a few more I am sure I am forgetting.

It was an expensive year!

Jealous!

Between 2 crashes and a bunch of track days I'd guess I'm around 5k for the summer.

Motofit flex pass 900.00 (5 days), one day at the ridge with pssr 180.00, 2.5 sets of tires, oil, gas, food and Beer. Cant wait for next year

I'd guess I'm in that same ball park, but not because of my crashes.

All part of the game. I didn't include the dr's bills I haven't opened yet, ignoring them all time don't with phy therapy for my hand and finger.

residentcourt1 · 10-21-2012, 12:44 PM

I'd like to know how much pat ( damnmyneckhurts) spent...he told me he was somewhere around 25 track days completed around sept .

Sentor · 10-21-2012, 01:44 PM

7 ridge days, 11 pir days, tires and fuel/race gas, probably well over $3000.

Eek. That's not including OMRRA and WMRRA days. Or the bike/crash repair and money on gear this year.

Overall I think I've spent over $13,000 this year alone.

cgt1229 · 10-21-2012, 02:04 PM

Wow! I sound like a lightweight then.

It would be nice to have 3-5k to dispose on such endeavors.

It's amazing how quickly 2 and 3 hundred bucks adds up over a season.

OP, has your buddy gotten divorced and remarried, yet?

About $2K, that includes 8 track days (7 The Ridge, 1 PR), tires and brake pads.
