For what it's worth, just to throw some numbers out on the table. I won the UMARA National Midget title this past year. We ran well, 1 win, 2nd. place 5 times and in the top 5 I believe 9 times.
From Jan. 1st to Dec. 31st.
$12,950.00 in deposits
$13,760.29 in bills paid out
That's a loss of $810.29
To me the title of CHAMPION was well worth the money.
However I do agree that something needs to be done to cut the cost's. Of the probably 20 nights we ran, 98% of which we bolted on 3 new tires.
