I know what you mean! But it isn't Donington who are the culprits here. If I take the price quoted for a days track hire - at &163;190 per car
that requires less than 60 entrants to cover the cost. Of course there are licenses etc to cover too.
I'd wag my finger at BRSCC and JEC who are likely to be turning over &163;60-70k on the weekend and paying out about &194;&163;20-25k for
expenses!
Have you also notived how all entries are the same these days, (except endurance races). It used tio be that 'invited' clubs payed a premium for their
race entries.
I'm really a bit 'miffed' that I'm not competing at Mallory @ &163;135 before discounts that' much more like it. Also, reserves who don't get
tov rac only get &163;75 back! - In 2000 when this was me I got a full refund minus &194;&163;15!
Anyone, want to buy Oulton Park between us - then we can charge the right price!
