it costs a bucket load in Australia aswell since we don't really have proper mini sprint/lightning sprint chassis builders. everyone is importing henchcrafts and is almost like a 1 make series in some states. they buy them and import them for around 10-12g win the odd race and try to resell them for 18-20g. if you don't have a henchcraft you havnt got a chance at winning a winged race here. prize money well that wouldn't even cover the running costs for a meeting. the Australian title pays around $1500 to win. chain drive stuff is hard to come buy unless you use henchcraft parts. ive got a bailey but to hard to find off the shelf gear for it over here so ive just picked up a stealth midget chassis and converted it to chain drive and use all off the shelf bolt on parts.
