maintaining a kart is a lot like maintaining anything. if you take the time to do the little things from the start its a hell of a lot cheaper than waiting for it to break. tyres cost about $1300-$1400 per set and we use a set every meet. race fuel and other lubes about $300 per meet and i believe entry is $200 per meet. SO roughly we will say about $2000 per race. unfortunately the cost of going fast isnt cheap, but compared to running an evo at rally which is about $10,000 per event, it doesnt seem that bad.
As for the carfreak: Entry is FREE and coolers are welcome. There is supposed to be a caterer. The racing is held in the carpark of ARC (the horse racing track). all the club ask is that you park your vehicle outside the gate
