Thoughts from Facebook
Enter on the CAMS portal for the WASCC 2018 season opener – February 17
“Noticed Nick Hanlon, Mark Jones, Terry De Sylva, Warren Ellis have all been getting ready for 2018 Round 1 at Barbagallo Raceway. So thought I’d better join the club. Who else isn’t ready?”
Justin Chaffey,
Warren Ellis: Working flat out trying to get ready. But 1 step forward and 3 steps backwards. It’s doing my head in. How come our entry fees have gone from $210 + $20 for Dorian hire, to $300 +$25? It’s a huge increase!
Terry De Sylva: That’s a forty two percent increase. That can’t be right.
Warren Ellis: That is what it says on the CAMS portal. I looked yesterday.
Justin Chaffey: Events were losing too much money. So entries proposed to go from $210-$240 for WASCC members, and $300 for non members. Neil Streatfield was trying to put together a bulk buy deal for Dorians.
Warren Ellis: And they will lose more money as they will drive people away from the sport.
A Voice of Reason
“You guys don’t know how good you have it in WA – $300 is still cheap! Over East it’s plus $450 everywhere we go. Plus $150-200 just for Friday practice. So I wouldn’t be complaining.”
Tony Auddino.
So what did it cost to run a Saloon Car last season?
