How much do you all have to pay to race at your local drag strip??? I'm just wondering what the average cost is to race around the nation. We, here in Denver, have to pay $30 dollars to go to Test & Tune night, while the club racing nights cost $35. On top of that, spectators have to pay $10 just to get in, and if you want a pit car, you have to pay $10 more. So, potentially a night of racing could cost a minimum of $50-55. How does this measure up to your local track???

IRP is $15 to race on Tuesdays, and $7 to watch! Pretty good for one of the top tracks in the country (and world?)

$15 to run test n' tune or small classes that pay up to $100.

$5 to be a spectator. Or free if you're good friends with the owners (like me ) haha

Not too bad, but they did jack up their prices.

Same price to race or watch...$13 per person. But they don't check the trunk so the cost goes down if you get creative...hehe. I haven't done that since the high school days.
