dirt 330, i started a thread that is now on pg. 3 about the company that i work for (school bus co.) that wants to expand their charter business with school buses. i"m guessing that you are talking renting a motor coach from the prices that are being quoted. a few things that i would like to point out about the two diff. buses. #1 the coach is probably more comfortable than the school bus and has ac. the school bus has only that 70 mph. a/c. speaking for myself, i am very sensistive to diesel fumes, so depending on the quality of the coach you rent, you will have some fumes. our school buses are 2011 models with the very high tech cummins turbo diesels that put out absolutely no diesel fumes.this is a fact, you can stand behind the exhaust on these buses and cannot smell any fumes at all. now here is the comparison on cost. the company i believe is going to let me promote a racers discount. now, this is not an official quote, but i roughly figured your 40 person bus on a 12 hr. day would be $ 16.50 a person. say it turned out to be a 16 hr. day, thats $22.00 a person, quite a savings. if this were to turn out to be larger than 40 people, no problem. we have i believe 200 of these buses. COME ON FANS, LET'S GO TO MILWAUKEE,ELDORA OR ANY TRACK YOU WISH TO VISIT!!!!
by the way, we are indy based, including 29 other states.
