1. Will you race more, less or the same number of events in 2009?
Actually, I plan on doubling my race entries in 2009. It's my
plan to keep the economy going - life is short, way too short, and my dad
has advised me to not count the money I'll save by not racing, on my
deathbed.
2. What do you pay for entry fees with the various organizations you
> race with?
My entry fees average $400, the total expense for an event
averages $1500 - I could lower this to $1400 if I eat more chicken
3. How many of the race organizations you race with have corporate
> sponsors to help offset the cost of racing, ie, keep entry fees lower?
