50 to watch is straight up retarded. I don't care how fast they are. It's cheaper to watch nhra , Nascar, or get tickets for COTA event.

Well officer, you bitch about our other racing location. Would you rather us rent a safe facility that costs a few bucks to pay for it, or would you rather us come blasting through your workplace?

Renting a place isn't cheap!

A few bucks would be reasonable. $50 to watch is not. I would prolly pay $20. I would bet they could make a lot more money if they dropped the price and allowed anyone to watch. I agree who races should be invite only but why discriminate against those who want to watch? Just sounds like the elitist attitude that most of the 1000hp guys have to me

It's a sub-1000hp car only event. Eat a donut.

It's cheap for a private event, you could always stay home and buy a video of it for 20 bucks that just has the highlights.

Its a private event that is VERY expensive to put on. If you don't want to go, then don't. Its not very complicated.

Were you invited BTW?

Not trying to tell anyone how to run it.

But why do that? When the guest spots easily sell now, and they don't have to worry about accommodating more people? Restrooms, food, etc… it all becomes more expensive with more people.

I have a hard time believing that the COTA is cheaper

It's 50 bucks. Not a lot of money for a full day of racing with bad ass cars. It's not even a tank of gas! lol.

You shouldn't have such a big car with a big gas tank, Grandpa

I remember those days riding in Grandpa's car fondly - "Don't make me pull this car over to beat your ass!"
