Chris,
How about painting the car Blue, Red, Orange & Gold and see if you can get some sponsorship as a promo car. Tell them it Fly's!

Re: How much have you spent?
That's exactly why I had to miss BMW "fun day" autocross at the Q yesterday. Veronica wanted "her" side of the 3-car garage back. I had my MX5 on one side, my Miata in the middle and my tools on the other side. Her outrageous demands ruined a perfectly good opportunity to wear out some expensive tires.Brian wrote:Happy Wife....Happy Life!
Today I upgraded my AutoEnginuity scantool software to the latest version and added the enhanced Mazda package. As soon as I hit send on the PayPal screen my wife was alerted to the charges. She asked me what I bought within 10 minutes of the purchase. There's no escape with today's banking technology, emails and text messages.

Re: How much have you spent?
Hey Chris now that you have the $15K number. Can you divide that by the number of track minutes and tell us the cost per minute
Re: How much have you spent?
Gee, I'm usually much happier when my autox times are lower, which means we should all be happier when the cost per minute goes higher!
Re: How much have you spent?
Listen, I've made that mistake before. I calculated the cost-per-run for my Hoosiers, and was saddened beyond belief (it's $30 BTW). My calculator has now become my enemy.

So call it roughly $30 a MINUTE? For that you could hire a lawyer. Hell, for that you could hire a lawyer to let you flog him, which would be a lot more satisfying than driving around some silly cones!
Re: How much have you spent?
No. Flogging attorneys is much more than $ 30 a minute. If you allow him to flog you then maybe. The recession has raised the price of attorneys and investment executives.jboemler wrote:So call it roughly $30 a MINUTE? For that you could hire a lawyer.

Re: How much have you spent?
Good vocabulary -- I notice you said the price went up, not the value.
