For those in the crowd that aren't independently wealthy (like myself) how do you earn yourself extra income/opportunities to apply towards your racing effort/project? What things do you do to make this hobby more comfortable financially? Inquiring minds would like to know! Thanks in advance.......

I sell myself to hot college chicks for the weekend.

Somehow, I still have to spend money I don't have to hit the track; go figure.

Best way to get a million dollars from racing is to start with two!!

I try to win enough to pay the expenses.
If I get really lucky may pay some of the initial expense but that hasn't happened yet.

Ain't that the truth. Had my first IRS Audit in 2009 for 2007. They wanted records for EVERYTHING, and then some. Brutal.

End result was no change, but what a royal PIA. If I didn't have records for every itemized deduction/income...I would have paid for it, plus penalty and interest.

Couple days ago I received a customer satisfation survey from the IRS...Are you (fill in the blank) kidding me?

we buy and sell stuff all the time.
you have to get in cheap, and have what people want.

they tell me that is why im single, but i dont get it.
