FitchRacer07 Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 What is the entry fee for the enduro, the registration fee for 08 and what is the fee to reserve a pit stall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debwill Posted November 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 I think the entry fee for the Enduro will be $100 - still working on all of the details. The THR 2008 registration fee is $50 per race car per class. I'll try to get you an answer on the pit stall fee soon. Thanks for asking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fast18 Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Is that a typo on the enduro payout ? If not I'll be putting a car together starting today ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FitchRacer07 Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Basically what your saying for the payout it will be the number of cars x 100. So if there are 30 cars the payout would be $3000? Sounds like fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debwill Posted November 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 fast18, No it's not a typo! FitchRacer07 is correct. Even with 20 cars, the winner would take home $2000. Of course, we're hoping to have a 100 or more cars with this type of payout and with this much advance notice. You've got to admit - the odds are much better than what you'd find on the slot machines in Las Vegas! LOL Darn, it even makes me want to get one built and have some fun! Help us spread the word to friends, co-workers, etc. We'll be creating an Enduro poster and flyers soon - let's stir up some excitement for this event.

sprintsrule Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Will passengers be allowed to ride in the enduro? I know we all have a couple of people we need to pay back for .... I mean, we all have a couple of friends we would like to enjoy the racing experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debwill Posted November 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 sprintsrule, The technical team is working on the rules now. I'll make sure your question is addressed. Jody Wayne, We never said "Winner takes All," although the winner will get the amount stated. We're also looking at other options on the purse. Again, stay tuned - we're working on it now.
