They must not by anxious to have anybody do TNT. And I thought it was robbery when they wanted $100 for TNT before a PSCA race..... For that kind of money I want a full private track rental!

A few years back they had a handful of PS cars and alcohol FC's testing when we were going through tech. So that must be what they paid?

$400.00 ???? Thats insane I wonder if you get a steak dinner and massage after you make a pass???
Seems like the entrance fees are also kind of steep. $150 for Pro or S/Pro and ony $1500.00 to win.

$400 does seem kind of steep, but a few years
ago Mazzolini fronted the money for a TNT at
the 1/8th mile track at Irwindale CA and the
cost for that day was about $2000. But it was
split up amongst about 12 or 14 cars.
So break it down. And don't forget they are looking for a profit or at
least to cover more of their expenses.

Yeah but this aint 12 cars and $2000, which is $166 dollars by the way.
And you can bet they are looking for a big profit as usual. It's a beautiful facility but sometimes I'm ashamed at how my home track gouges people.

Hey just so you guys know, we will be having our local racing series on the weekend prior to MATS. If you want to be an early bird you could test n tune at that time.
We will be having back to back races on Saturday and Sunday so each one will probably cost $50 to $60, I'm not sure since I haven't been out this year, but it beats the hell out of $400. lol
EDIT: Our TNT is on Friday the 13th

Wonder if this applies to the SS/AH guys too...They did it a couple years ago as well and the only people running were Stock and SS guys along with the new Challenger they had there.
