My race budget is based on the following, been doing it for 14 years so have a good idea of my costs

Entry and Test/Track day
Race fuel
Van Fuel
Food etc
One Tyre
Zero Crash Damage
Oil degradation
Oil filter degradation
Belts degradation
________________________________
£540
________________________________

£540 X 8 rounds = £4320 for Season with Friday test/track day

Reduced by about £1200 if not doing test/trackday on the Friday as you also save on tyres, fuel and food
