I understand the cost associated with running in Sprint and Midget Races, but it would be cheaper to buy your own Kit and do everything yourself. Now, granted, there is a few guys that charge $500 to $1500, which is great, that's reasonable and very fair. But A person who wanted to get into Sprint/Midget Racing can't afford to pay $4,000 plus per race. And it's the big boys who charge the least is what is funny. Clauson,Kruseman,Kuhn will set you up for around $1000-$3000 per race, and these are top teams. All I can say is do your research.
