not counting the beating my bumper got from cone smashing in the autcocross, i had to drop around $700 in repairs and reallignment. i think this isnt bad for a summer of thrashing on and off the track. lets see how everyone else faired out coz i'm betting some people took a big hit by the end :bigpimp:

I think I'm looking at around 3500-4000 by the end of the year, dunno exactly, gotta get front fender and bumper fixed, plus replace some parts, and then get the rust cut out of my rear wheel wells.

I don't hit cones, I try and drive around them :D Actually the only thing I need over the winter is some new track tires to beat the crap out of. So maybe $300? (THANK YOU MR. KLEIN!) Which means that I have money to do other things....:burnout:

Spent 500 bucks on new rear rotors, calipers, synthetic oil change and full inspection last month.

I spent about $400 in oil during my track days, lol, which is because I installed some rings upside down when I built my motor, add to that $100 for head gasket and cam tower gasket, and $20 for rings, and I'm ~$500 for this year's racing, tires are still good for another year too :)

Around $1,400, blew my diff up, belts and brackets, fuel system to make it so I could race, etc..

haha didn't get a chance to race at all this summer. the head on my 240 decided to crack and i was without my car for the large majority of the summer. also got a new clutch and about to do the brakes. lol spend 2.8k so far, thank god a family friend is a mechaninc or it wouldn't have been worth gettign the head and clutch done at the dealership.
