16 cars per class @ $350 = 5600
winner payout of $5000
net per class $600.
net per entrant $600/16 = $37.5
could there be hope of having Test & tunes at something close to that price? wishful thinking i know, but throwing that out anyway. |

Doubt it... still have insurance, ambulance, fire and so on to pay for.
But I think we NEED a test and tune - we have not had proper time to tune OR test cars for years now (WITH a timing system in place, functional 60', ET and trap speed at the MINIMUM), so how can you run a 'championship' if people's cars aren't even up to speed ?
Have they all been testing on the street ? |

TTASA is working toward having the necessary equipment realised....
..
a test & tune is carded after 01/02 March event...date TBA...
in the meantime...a local championship has to start at some point..& waiting in the wings, twiddling thumbs wouldn't cut it.......
regardless of how primitive some may think the efforts being made are...they do count for something and have a cumulative effect on the eventual best possible scenario.
...
&, YES, listening to the conversations, they've been 'testing on the street...some doing 'well', others climbing on top of other cars (jumping gear??)....oh well...all part of the 'R & D'...
