Kirk,
I think you hit the nail on the head with your trips to Lowes, Home Depot and Sears,
Not to mention the trailer shop and then there is the tow vehicle………
Those are exactly the costs I am trying to track, as it appears that every time I go out I drop 100 bucks on “something” that I “need” from…(insert favorite store).
I follow your same logic on vehicle maintenance and spend a lot of time replacing parts in the shop so that I can sit in my chair and relax while at the track. My car uses the (Dick Shine) “Navy Flotation” test for any questionable parts…. If you question a part, toss it in a bucket of water and if it sinks it needs to be replaced. After years and years of racing these cars Dick has us (Eli and I) on a vigorous preventative maintenance schedule.
Thanks again for the pointers (I see where that $$ is going)
