Are you talking an enduro season?
See my note on your other thread. I was able to do a full season for $5K in a 944 when I first started. Was I slow? Hell yeah!! but I was out there having fun and learning. I'd have to look back but I think I had a couple of seasons in my ITB rabbitt for about the same. But I was also lucky I had no major failures or crashes.
You don't EVEN want to know what I spent this past season to win the NARRC championship..............
If you want to do the responsible thing financially? Don't race.......... We're all whacked to be doing this..........
